The Valley Cubs have made some changes Returning starters: OL Jacob Barrett, OL/DL Dakota Sams, OL Josh Longoria, QB Luke to the offense to create new ways to score, but will Tucker, DB/RB Alton Davis, DB Tyrelle Gay, DB Nick Porter, WR Derrik Turner, LB Alex feature the same defense. Even with the move to Campbell, LB Austin Wells Class 5A from 4A, Alexandria should have a good season, but there are question marks that follow- ing its 3-7 season last fall.

But Anniston didn’t move up alone. Alex- andria and Lincoln made the same jump and again will be in Anniston’s region. Too, Anniston has a 68-man roster, including a Quint Dobbins returning 2014 schedule 2013 schedule with results and improved at quarterback. The Bulldogs also Aug. 22 ......
