FOOTBALL ’93

Hamilton Yankees

COACH: John Ausbon, fourth year.

1992 RECORD: 5-7, 4-3 in Coastal Conference.

PREDICTION: The Yankees continue their tradition of having fast running backs and receivers, but lack size. Running back Rasheed Phillips, who bench-presses 240 pounds, is one of the top sprinters and receiver Jason Brownlee is one of the top hurdlers in the City Section. Expect the Yankees to make the playoffs for the third consecutive year.
