EASTLAND — Second-year coach Bobby Schuman will be taking traditionally pass-happy Eastland in an entirely different direction in 2024, switching the Mavericks from a modern spread attack to an old-fashioned wing-T. 

Eastland will have five offensive and six defensive starters returning to make it go, including seniors Cason Browning (RB, 6-0, 180), Cayden Alford (switching to RB, 5-11, 200), Eddie Medina (5-11, 175) and Isaac Castro (DE/RB, 5-10, 170). 

There will be additional help among 15 returning lettermen and call-ups from a solid 7-3 JV team, leaving Schuman with decent numbers to begin his commitment to an offense that dates back more than 70 years.
