Undefeated in league play and toting along a state title, Hutchinson has once again been picked as the preseason favorite in the 2012 AVCTL Div. 1 Coaches Poll.

The Salthawks came out on top in all five league games last season in route to their 11-2 record and a 5A state title.  They now move up to 6A, but bring back a team with 10 returning defensive starters, and a three-year starting quarterback in Trevor Turner.
