The Lee's Summit West Titans enter the new season as the defending Class 5 champions. A squad led by Mizzou bound Evan Boehm on the line and senior quarterback Luke Knott have plenty of talent to repeat their Suburban Mid 6 title and advance deep into the playoffs.
The rest of the league must slow the Titans and look to be evenly matched as the new season opens later this month.
