Although still a very relatively young team, the Rattlers will be coming into 2005 as a much more exprienced team than last year's squad. If Robert Garza can step up his potential and be a bigger leader on the offensive side of the ball, look for the Rattlers to make a charge at a possible playoff spot. Only time will tell how far this group of juniors and seniors can go with this team.
