Fort Vancouver Trappers
Coach: Eric Ollikainen.
2011 record: 0-9, 0-6 3A GSHL.
Key players: Jordan Suell, so., qb; Jaquan Thomas, sr., rb/lb; Gaquan White, sr., wr/dl; Taylor VanHeck, sr., wr/db; Jaylen Ross, sr., rb/db; Tomas Acevedo, jr., te/lb; Saul Santacrus, sr., ol/dl; Manuel Posas, sr., ol/dl; Isaac Rodriguez, sr., ol/lb; William Brown, jr., ol/dl; Lisa Spangler, jr., lb.
Season outlook: The numbers are up and the attitude is positive this season at Fort Vancouver. Those two things should be a big boost as the Trappers try to get their program headed in a positive direction after a winless 2011.
“We’re hungry for a win,” Ollikainen said. “We’re going to be looking for a win in Week 1. If it doesn’t happen in Week 1, we’re going to keep hunting. If things go right, we’re going to surprise some teams this year. The pressure’s off. No one expects us to do anything this year. We’re just going to play the game.”
