Head Coach Tori Giacomo indicated that the playbook will be the same as last year but with the 30 games of\u00a0experience under the senior&#8217;s belts he is hoping to be able to make some changes based on the defenses they will face.<\/p>\n<p>The offense will be led by quarterback Dustin Segura with a three man backfield that will vary with the plays called. The backfield will allow the Tigers many options on the running game as well as a passing game. While in years past Raton was known as a passing team Giacomo is working on a well rounded offense mixed with passes and runs.<\/p>\n<p>The defense which is also made up of those experienced seniors is showing great promise noted Giacomo. He felt like that\u00a0is the team&#8217;s strong point at this early point in the season.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lH0ZKNpIkgw\" width=\"600\" height=\"494\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Marty Mayfield KRTN Multi-Media It started four years ago with a new\u00a0class of freshman players who had to step up and fill the shoes of those leaving the team, it was a building year for the Tigers.
