Stevenson football

It almost seems fitting that Stevenson, which sits off the 17-mile drive in Pebble Beach, would have just 17 players suiting up this year.
Accept 17 players on a football roster is a huge risk in a physical sport.
Essentially the program is two or three injuries away from either calling up players from the junior varsity that are not physically ready, forfeiting games, or possibly its season.
When one unit is on the field, there will be as many players on the sidelines as coaches. Fatigue becomes a factor.
Small numbers are nothing knew at Stevenson. But this is a dangerously low number.
