THREE TO SEE

Elusive runner with a keen ability to set up his blocks.

Tre Harstad, linebacker

Great coverage backer.

OUTLOOK

Ingraham is loaded with returning talent heading into 2019, particularly a strong senior class.

Last season, the Rams were able to make a week 10 appearance after going 6-2 in the regular season, but lost a close game to Metro League Valley Division champ, Chief Sealth.

This year, Ingraham returns a ton of all-league talent, and will have one of the most experienced teams in the Metro League.

There’s no reason that this team can’t win the Metro League.
