OUTLOOK

A strong nucleus returns, especially on the offensive line, where the Trojans can take advantage of the Roberts brothers and Overdevest. The team is physically bigger and stronger than most University teams, and new line coach Tom Knudson should help. Contento gives University breakaway speed and more diversity than usual on offense. The Trojans are looking for their first league title since 1975. Cunningham said this team is better across the board than last year’s, which made the playoffs.
