What to expect: Telstar opted to play a junior varsity schedule last year in hopes of building the foundation for a more sustainable future in varsity. Playing in the Class E developmental league is another step in that direction. Most of the upperclassmen have varsity experience from two years ago. With an improved sophomore class, an influx of talented freshmen and a more competitive schedule, the Rebels have the building blocks to grow..
