Their stud that year was the Orlando Bell kid. They also had three Martinez cousins??? i'm guessing, because they were all SRs that year. Alberto Allen and Carlos. They could all play ball.

Star was the Army Strong 2008 Six-Man Team of The Year.
They used to have a big tribute on their school web site, but I can't find anything now.

From above. "Robinson took a simple approach — play to your strengths. That meant going away from the team’s pass-happy past to just the running ball, and they had the guys to do that in Orlando Bell and Alberto Martinez, who both return this season. Bell, the Six-Man Division II player of the year, ran for 75 touchdowns and nearly 4,000 yards as a junior last season. He ran for 10 touchdowns in five games. Martinez, another all-state pick, ran for 25 touchdowns."
Bell and Martinez were Juniors in 2008 and there were high hopes for 2009 but they did not return for the 2009 season.
LoneStarFootball says they finished 2-8.
 
Thanks guys for the help. I have these 2 articles on file...looking for some stuff a little more local to Star, and single game articles and films.
