Lindbergh football tough to figure for ’09

August 10th, 2009 at Mon, 10th, 2009 at 11:27 am by Adam McFadden

The Lindbergh football team featured an explosive offense that took them to the state tournament last season (the Eagles lost to eventual state champ Bellevue), but there is a big question mark behind center this season.

The team lost long-time starter Jacob Allie at quarterback. Allie set pretty much every school record for yards, completions and touchdowns.

Having said that, the Eagles do welcome back a bunch of playmakers in Diondre Toms, Derek Herley and Frank Cange.

With that type of talent, I think the team will be solid no matter what. Whether they will return to state depends on how they replace Allie at quarterback.
