Landen Birley, a senior at West Valley High School, is set to lead the Rams' football team with a bolstered supporting cast this season.

The team also benefits from the return of experienced players like senior running back Luke Jenkins and the addition of transfer junior running back Jace Cates. Coach Craig Dean is optimistic about the team's prospects, noting the depth and versatility in the offensive and defensive lines, which should help Birley and the team aim for a successful season.
