OUTLOOK

The Tigers, two-time defending Division VI champions, return one of the county’s best players in Draft, who’s being recruited by several top Pac-10 schools. Petko passed for 1,300 yards last year and also has some interest from colleges. The Tigers lost two key defensive linemen--junior Bryan Cork, who moved to Colorado, and senior Romaine Mills, who left the team for disciplinary reasons. The top newcomers are Secoda, Petko’s backup, and Riley, a 15-year-old who played a few downs on varsity last year.
