SEPTEMBER 6, 2019, KEIZERTIMES FOOTBALL PREVIEW, PAGE B17 Jamal McMurrin. Although they are relatively untested, Stanley believes he has a crew of receivers that can be productive, including seniors Nick Paslay and Marshall Bray, who just transferred from Sprague. The two spots where there are still question marks for this West Salem team are at linebacker and in the secondary. “Defensively, we graduated the whole back end, so we’re going to have to fi ll some spots on that side,” Stanley said. Junior Nate Garcia, along with seniors Austin Galberth and Jake Tinesth will likely be looked at as the leaders on the defensive backfi eld. Along with Pugh, Kaiden Reidhead will be moving from the defensive line into an outside linebacker role while Santiago Cecchini will be slated to play middle backer. “We’re not a huge group physically. But our defense is built on speed, so if you can run and if you’re tough, you can play,” Stanley said. West Salem was the only MVC team to win a playoff game last season, defeating Southridge 57-28. They also ended the season with the highest state ranking out of MVC team (15th). But on Oct. 19 of last year, the Titans were upset at home by McNary, who went onto to eventually win the conference title. “We just got outplayed and out-coached on that night. You want to beat everyone on your schedule, but that game really left a bad taste in our mouths,” Stanley said. When the two teams meet on Friday, Oct. 25 West Salem will be looking to exact their revenge in a game that could decide the conference champion. “It’s always our goal to win a conference championship and we expect ourselves to make deep runs in the playoffs and hopefully have a chance to win a state championship. Some years that’s more realistic than others, “It’s always our goal to win but I’m not afraid to say a conference championship that we have and we expect ourselves great kids and great to make a deep run coaches and that we in the playoffs…” should be in — Shawn Stanley, the hunt for West Salem head coach a conference title every year. If we’re in the opening game. They not, the coaches aren’t doing will also take on Sheldon in a good job,” Stanley said. week four, who was the 2018 The Titans will be state runner-up.
