Rattlers building depth on O-line in spring camp

Spring is for fine-tuning what works.

San Marcos head coach John Walsh is known for his team’s presence on the offensive side of the ball, with his athletic quarterback and running backs finding space in gaps while they pick up yards all over the field. But you can’t do that without blocking the 11 players on defense chasing the one ball. The first line of defense has to be precise. The linemen up front play a vital part in the success of Walsh’s teams, too.

Although San Marcos graduates a couple of players from the O-line, the unit may have gotten even bigger, which bodes well for the running Rattlers in their new district. They also may have found a gem in San Marcos, which college coaches are starting to take note of.
