North Salinas football

 The Vikings are a prime candidate to be moved back into the Gabilan Division next year.
 But is it the right move?
 North Salinas clearly dominated the Pacific Division, averaging over 40 points a game while holding teams to an average of 10.1 points.
 That being said, this is a team that will be gutted by graduation, as 20 of the 30 players on the roster are seniors.
 Ten returning players -- even from a league championship team that won a playoff game and rattled off seven straight wins -- means you're in a rebuilding mood.
 Depth is an issue in a more physical league.
 Could North Salinas have competed in the Gabilan this year?
 Well, it went 1-1 against teams from the Gabilan.
 There's no rule that says the Pacific Division champion has to move up. Yet, my guess is there are at least two teams in the Gabilan that want down.
