The roster of team captains includes superstar personality and reigning No Prep Kings champion Ryan Martin, Jay Boddie, Mike Murrillo, Shawn “Murder Nova” Ellington, Justin Swanstrom, and “Disco” Dean Karns.

Candidates for the People’s Choice Team Captain are Lizzy Musi, “Daddy Dave” Comstock, Robin Roberts, Jerry Bird, Scott Taylor, Jim Howe, James “Birdman” Finney, and Kayla Morton.
