THREE TO SEE

Kaden Gill, running back, defensive back

1,350 all-purpose yards, 13 touchdowns, and 2 INTs during a terrific junior season.

Tristan Shafer, defensive back/wide receiver

A big contributor on both sides of the ball for the Pointers.

Alejandro Barragan-Peterson, defensive lineman

Powerful interior lineman will play on both sides of the ball.

OUTLOOK

It’s never easy with Western League opponents, so Point Loma must take advantage of their non-league games.

With two capable quarterbacks and one of the section’s top running backs, the Pointers offense should be a bright spot in 2019.

The Pointers are definitely eyeing their season-opening rematch with El Camino, where they lost 17-16 last season.
