Gained 194 yards as a tailback in limited action last season, but

will spend first part of this fall at fullback.

He completed 17 of 35 passes as the third-string signal caller a

year ago.

A first-team all-conference selection in 2002, he is the Rustlers’

most potent receiving threat.

The quarterback candidate boasts a strong arm and is “physical,”

Shackleford said.

A safety, he led the Rustlers in tackles in 2001, but missed last

season because of knee injury.

Gained 80 yards last season. He’ll move to receiver in multiple-

package sets.

The only returner on an offensive line Shackleford expects to be

“much improved.”

A returning starter on the defensive line, he made 34 tackles a

year ago.

Valbuena will attempt to fill void left by Jacob Morado, now at

the University of Arizona.

The offensive lineman earned first-team All-Sunset League honors

last year at Marina.
