Kickoff 2012: Canyon preview
Last season record: 0-10, 0-6 (seventh place)
Postseason: 2010, lost to El Toro, 13-3 in CIF-SS Southwest Division first round playoffs
Coach: Brent McKee (13th year, 61-63-1)
Home stadium: El Modena High
Outlook: Last season was one to forget for the Comanches as they went winless, scored just 50 points in 10 games and played most of the season without coach McKee who underwent surgery to remove a kidney. The 2012 season is all about starting over. Canyon returns 12 starters, six on both sides of the ball, as they look to become a factor in the league race again. One area of strength is the offensive line, Canyon has a lot of size up front led by Ahmad Sunda, Lose Moala and Darien Revis.
Factoid: Canyon returns 30 letterwinners from last season
School record: 179-218-2
