YORBA LINDA, Calif.—Pulling off a successful encore after winning a CIF Southern Section Division 3 football championship is no mean feat, especially after having lost 16 starting players to graduation.

Things didn’t begin so well this season for Yorba Linda High School, with two losses in its first three games, but the Mustangs are right where they want to be entering a key Crestview League road test Oct. 20 against Villa Park.
