Lukas Hartley, center, listens to a coach give a pep talk before their first game of the season since the Camp Fire devastated the town last year. Hartley lost his home and moved to Oregon with his father but decided to return to Paradise to play football and live with his brother. "Dream season?" Hartley says. "A dream season for me would be, at the end of the day, I get to go to my old home."
