Get ready for the Dorsey Dons to do something different: Pass the football
Briefly

Stafon Johnson, former USC running back and current Dorsey football coach, aims to balance running and passing plays with the addition of quarterback Elijah McDaniel. Dorsey will open the season against Carson, a game significant for City Section Open Division playoff implications. The team includes younger core players, mainly in 10th and 11th grades, who gained experience last season. All-City defensive back Mahki McCluster will lead the defense, and with Deuce, Johnson's son, in the receiver position, the Dons may increase their passing attempts.
At USC, Stafon Johnson was a running back. As the football coach at his alma mater, Dorsey, he has continued to preach running the football - until now.
Johnson has a promising quarterback, sophomore Elijah McDaniel, so look for the Dons to run and pass.
The Dons have a huge opening game on Aug. 28, playing Carson in a game that could have implications for the City Section Open Division playoffs weeks away.
All-City defensive back Mahki McCluster returns to lead the defense. Perhaps Deuce has been lobbying Dad to throw more.
