2005 Gazette Preview
Sept. 7 - The Blue Devils kick off the season with a dangerous Sherwood team, including 2,100-yard quarterback Deontay Twyman. The rest of Springbrook’s schedule is about average in degree of difficulty, meaning the young Blue Devils will have their chances to make new coach Rob Wendel’s year a memorable one.  more . . .

2005 Examiner Preview
Aug. 24 - Last year's record: 4-6.  Coach: Rob Wendel (1st year).  Once a powerhouse, Springbrook has only two winning seasons in 10 years. Turnaround is imminent however as 140 players reported for practice. "I can't explain it," said Wendel. "One thing we did was get the word out about practice. And this freshman class looks very good." This year's fortunes will ride on three-year starting QB Harold Brantley. Derrick Overton and Adou Kouadio, the top back on an 8-2 JV, are competing at tailback. Brantley has inviting targets in agile TE/DE Darryl Kornegay (6-3, 255) and speedy WR/CB Nick Oates. Walter Brown (5-11, 255) and Mark Davis (5-9, 225) will play both ways on the line. Kris Diggs (5-10, 190) and Everett Pumphrey (5-10, 225) return at LB.  more . . .
