2021 notes: While the Rangers have a wealth of talent returning on offense from a group that loves to run the ball, control the clock and wear down their opponents, Greenwood’s success is going to depend on how well the defense reloads. DL Jacobo and OL/DL Lucero will lead the team up front while the linebacker corps has plenty of returning talent. The secondary may experience early season growing pains but will be the team’s backbone.
