Very good work, Chateau! It sure looks like a match to me.

One minor quibble though. That pdf link that has Cathi Alden as the principal of Crescent Valley High School is from 2004-2005. This link shows a different principal currently at Crescent Valley High School, so Cathi is the former principal.

Great Job!  With the entire cast now identified, I'm pleased to say that we have more teams from states other than CA. Great job to CBS for not being like Survivor and the past few seasons by casting teams from across the country!

62 and 63 are the oldest combined ages we have had since Season 7, so definitely an old team. Not neccessarily old, but an old team, by comparion!

But I have a lot of respect for triathletes <3


Marcy and Ron and Fran and Barry were really close to those ages. But a few seasons like 16 and 17 seemed to only focus on younger teams.

Considering they're a year older than Dave & Margaretta, the original "old team," they're old. But remember that age is just a number.

Exactly, Dave was 64, but Margaretta was just 59. She has now passed away, :( Bill and Cath are definitely a fit old team however, and I could see them going quite far, if the Top 8 information is correct

Steven has a nice team summary here!

This time, Survivor champions, twin sisters, snowboarders, and flight attendants are among the adventurous pairs who traveled the world from June to July 2011 in pursuit of the million dollar grand prize. Get an early look at the new teams below.

"Get to know NFL player Marcus Pollard from 'The Amazing Race 19'"
 by Stacy Carey, Scottsdale TV Examiner
 August 8, 2011

Fans are geared up for Season 19 of The Amazing Race on CBS, and it looks like it’s going to be a great cast. One of the racers for TAR 19 is Marcus Pollard, who is racing with his wife Amani. Kudos to the observant Reality Fan Forum poster Chateau d'If who was the first to uncover the Pollard couple's participation. Pollard is a former NFL football player, and Scottsdale fans of the show are anxious to learn a bit more about this NFL and TAR star.

    Marcus played basketball at Bradley University, as the school did not have a football program at the time he attended.
    Pollard was signed by the Indianapolis Colts in 1995 as an undrafted free agent.
    His best season was in 2001 where he had 47 receptions and 8 touchdowns, including one for 86 yards.
    Marcus played for the Colts from 1995-2004.
    He moved on to play for the Detroit Lions from 2005-2006.
    He also played for the Seattle Seahawks (2007), New England Patriots (2008 Offseason/practice squad) and Atlanta Falcons (2008-2009).
    His career stats indicate he has a total of 349 receptions for a total of 4,280 yards and 40 touchdowns.
    After retiring, Pollard became a high school football offensive coordinator at Lanett High School in Alabama.
    Marcus and his wife Amani have three children together: Myles, Micah and Aja.
    The Pollard family is now in Atlanta, Georgia. Marcus is 39-years-old and Amani is 36.
