OUTLOOK

The Centurions know who their coach is, so that’s a positive step. Lance Neal was hired last spring, then resigned for personal reasons. So in steps Jensen, who has been an assistant at the school since 1982. He was the defensive coordinator last season. Jensen inherits a team that is young and inexperienced--a bad combination in this league. The Centurions do have some size. Guzman is listed at 305, but may be closer to 335. If they can block as well as they eat, there will be a few holes opened. Brito, an all-county baseball player, is a strong running back and probably will be the focal point on offense.
