Wait until you see the amazingly talented Denfeld high school football team play this season, starting in next Friday's season and home opener against Mora at historic Public Schools Stadium.

This is the most exciting team at Denfeld in nearly 40 years.

Howie: Will C.J. Ham retire after this season?
