During the broadcast of the THSCA game it was stated, by FSW broadcasters, Soza would redshirt this year. With George, Hawkins and Garza in the lineup I think this would be wise.
Observations of Soza from the TSHCA game:
San Marcos Daily Record
Beeville quarterback Eric Soza looked confident and poised in the pocket, as he went 4-for-7 with 63 yards passing. He threw a 7-yard touchdown pass to Chris McCallister at the end of the second quarter. Soza provided the North defense plenty of looks behind center, as he guided the South offense in traditional I, Pro Set, Split Backs and Spread formations. He looked most comfortable out of the Shotgun, as he could survey the field and dance around the pocket longer. Soza also laid out for a touchdown attempt in the first quarter, but was upended and ruled out at the 1-yard line. The South team scored on the next play.
