Lions All-Star FB: Turlock Treat
Game MVP Jordan Porter and Defensive MVP Gabriel Cordero were teammates last season at Turlock and teamed up again on Saturday night to lead the South to a 24-2 triumph over the North in the 45th annual Lions All-Star Football Game held in Tracy. Despite the final score, it was still anybody’s game with three […]
Standing Out Among All-Stars
It doesn’t matter that the D1 bound college players aren’t in summer high school all-star games anymore. It’s still a step up from traditional high school games and that does allow some players to rise up within that group and then start to think about a future playing at a four-year college either in two […]
Blue-Grey Combine Breakout Players
It actually was a blue-gray mix in the skies above the Blue-Grey All-American Football Combine held on Sunday at Freedom High in Oakley. Sure, it’s not the same as one of the many Nike camps we’ve been to dozens of times over the years, but you get to know the smaller group of players better […]

The incoming senior at Mission Hills (San Marcos) was one of the rave performers at last weekend’s The Opening held at Nike World Headquarters.

St. Mary’s duo back on the field
The last time that these two players from St. Mary’s of Stockton were on a football field it was for one of the most intense CIF state title games ever played. QB Jake Dunniway and DE Jordan Stinhilver will both be playing for the North in this Saturday’s Lions All-Star Game in Tracy. Note: We […]
Elite 11 QB Tanner McKee
With his team at Corona Centennial having lost its only games last season 50-49 and 49-47, it doesn’t take much to figure out how this highly regarded signal caller is getting motivated for the upcoming season. We talked to him on a day in which he wasn’t participating at the Elite 11 Finals, but the […]
