FOOTBALL ’93

Santa Monica Vikings

COACH: Daniel Escalera, first year.

1992 RECORD: 0-10, 0-4 in Bay League.

PREDICTION: The Vikings should be strong offensively, with Michael Jackson leading the way. The defense will take a bend-but-don’t-break approach and should be strong in the secondary. The team is expected to be improved from the 1992 squad, which finished 0-10.
