This is Highland Football's 2008 schedule. Highland plays two tough opening games, and they're both on the road. Plus, they face, what is projected to be, a very solid Skyline team, at home.
Their Region 6 opener will also be a test, as they face East, at East's field. East has some solid players, and are led by Steve Tuikolovatu, among others. East's question mark is their coaching, with the departure of Whitehead, how will East respond?
Highland should not overlook Granger! Generally, once you start overlooking an opponent, you are in for a very big letdown.
Olympus, is the team that East's ex-coach, Whitehead, told the Salt Lake Tribune, he expects to be the dark horse, in Region 6. I wouldn't be surprised, as Olympus, is a traditional football power, and I don't think that they are too far gone, from returning to their glory days.
Cottonwood is solid! They have a veteran quarterback, and running back. In fact, Sofele (RB), is one of the best in the state, garnering 1st Team All-State honors. Cottonwood's question mark, is its, traditionally solid defense. They do have a solid defensive back, in Hosea, and others, so, defensively, they should be good.
Cyprus lost loads of talent, but they should be competitive.
West is in the same boat, as Cyprus, they had some key departures, but I do expect West will compete in Region.
Murray is another team that should not be overlooked. They're traditionally in the bottom echelon of Region 6 teams, but they are attempting to turn things around, and they do have David Archuleta, as a good luck charm.
That said, Highland does have the talent to run this table, and if they do, that's a HUGE if, they will be sitting "pretty", when the state playoffs roll around.
