Ryan McDowell: Sr, RB/LB, 5’10” 180lbs (80-tackles, 1 sack) Kurt Brown: Jr, LB, 5’11” 190lbs (Minnesota transfer) Tyrant Davis: Jr, LB, 5’10” 185lbs (66-tackles, 2 sacks) Jordan Thomas: Soph, FB/LB, 6’0″ 220lbs (First year varsity) Guadalupe Gomez: Jr, LB, 5’8″ 170lbs (First year varsity)

Norwalk lost some studs on defense but HC Jesse Ceniceros believes this unit will keep the Lancers defense one of the best in the area.

“I think these guys will be one of the best linebacker crews in all of CIF,” said Ceniceros.

Davis and McDowell both had a good amount of playing time in last years 13-1 season. Thomas a sophomore the youngest but biggest is excepted to do big things with the skills he has, Brown is a recent transfer from Minnesota that started for a team that went to the semi finals of state. Gomez another first year varsity player is the quickest and is very smart on the field.

Ceniceros says of his crew “they’re fast, strong and best of all physical.”
