Moments before the ball is snapped, Prosper's offensive line sets up on the line of scrimmage. This offensive line includes senior Logan Cahill who is committed to play Division I football at Sam Houston State University.

"I believe and I am all in for this team working and bonding together through the thick and thin. We need to stay locked in this season on both sides of the ball."
