Ronnie Thompson enters his second year at Memorial after a successful first year at the helm in 2006 and will be looking to return to the postseason and make a deeper run this year. The Titans were knocked out of the playoffs in the Bi-District round by La Porte 56-27. Memorial returns 11 starters off last year’s team and should be one of the front runners for the 21-5A championship in 2007.

Key Wins Last Year:

Baytown Lee (27-26)

Humble (33-30)

Last Year’s Scores:

Memorial 31 Ozen 27

Aldine Nimitz 44 Memorial 28

Houston Lamar 29 Memorial 6

Memorial 27 Baytown Lee 26

West Brook 56 Memorial 41

Memorial 20 Baytown Sterling 6

Memorial 33 Humble 30

La Porte 56 Memorial 27

Offensive Summary

Memorial’s spread offense is sure to keep opposing defenses on high alert all year long after they averaged 30 points per game in 2006. 6 starters are back on offense for the Titans and the main threat is WR Freddie King. Last year King hauled in 50 catches for 800 yards and 10 touchdowns. Coach Thompson will have to find a replacement at QB after the graduation of Davon Lewis (McNeese State). The two front runners for that job appear to be Harry Brown and Jareal Alexander. Look for tailback Patterson Clay to have a big year in 2007.

Other Offensive Impact Players:

Rashaud Brown (WR)

Craig Bailey (WR)

Glenn Windon (WR)

Kevin Thomas (OL)

Defensive Summary

The Titans welcome back 5 starters from a defensive unit that gave up 31 points per game in ’06. Those numbers will need to improve for Memorial to have a shot at a district title. David Whitmore and Anthony Cockrell will be big pieces to the Titan secondary. Also keep an eye on LB Earl Hines and the DE duo of Radermon Scypion and Colby Bonton.

Other Defensive Impact Players:

Tonzell Eckford (LB)

Memorial will begin their season with a trip to Cardinal Stadium in week 1 to face the Ozen Panthers.

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

If you wanna beat PAM you better have a better offense.  expect them to average right around 30-40 points a game again.
