I am setting up a site where one can buy tickets online. This way you dont have to wait in line when you get to Grant High.

If anyone is interested you can check out last years highlites at http://www.wannaplaycollegesports.com

Both teams are loaded again! I hope to make the roster announcement soon. it always takes longer than anticipated.

I will say this if you like wide open offenses. Concord’s LLoyd and Folsom’s Grave are committed. You all know about lloyd but Folsoms Graves stats 53 TD passes, only 3 INT’s, and 16 rushing TD’s for the year. He will move into 3rd place on the alltime Ca. passings TD’s with one more. He has over 100 td’s in just 2 years. He was a wr his soph year.

You will have to go to youtube.com and paste this link. Or go to youtube and type in Dano graves.

The other QB’s are just as exciting!

Prepfan, I know your last post on this thread was a bit dated, but to back up your point about Encinal’s good rushing stats vs poorer defenses and how it compares to the EBAL rushing stats, we can look at the stats of DLS and Encinal rb’s vs Serra.

Encinal-
Okamura: 2-10, 5.0 YPC
Trodder: 7-51, 7.3 YPC
Allen: 13-81, 6.2 YPC

DLS-
Dunne: 10-171, 17.1 YPC
Te’o: 10-75, 7.5 YPC
DeMattei: 8-41, 5.1 YPC

Can we buy tickets yet to the Holiday game? (Website?) Juniors (like D. Drew) not eligible. Any news yet on players selected/confirmed? Game was great last year; certainly as more news on it goes out it will be a good look-see for the college coaches (can they attend at that time?) also. Best game in town anyway (whichever town).

Justin should be in a league with Berean Christian, Valley Christian – Dublin, St. Liz, CSD. Wilson Academy, and Rincon Christian. All these schools can play some comp football and Justin could get back on the good foot- like JB says.

How about Justin-Siena- 1-8, program falling fast this year. Suggestion going to NCS commisioners- drop down to a league with Calistoga, St. Henela, Potter Valley and Willits. They could re-group and build back up to a Div 4 power in a couple of years. Nothing wrong with being humble and admit fall from grace.

Does anyone ever look across the bay.Ive seen all these teams and players and nobody mentions 4 guys from SPSV.RB Patrick 19 tds,1200yds must avg 13 or better per carry.Souza QB(21) 13 throwing,8 rushing 1800 combined yds,Herndon REC 9tds 15 yds or so per catch and the 320lb lineman,Delgado who pancakes everyone!
These guys could play with any of these teams.
Only loss to a good Encinal team and I know SPSV was without some key players in that game.

Also please consider the defenses these teams have been up against (not to pick on the Jets, but just an example since teams’ schedules differ substantially).

Jonathan Allen and Paul Okamura from Encinal Jets.

#32 J. Allen – 71 Carries, 862 yards 12.14 per carry
#23 P. Okamura - 34 Carries 547 yards 16.09 per carry

With the average of 10-15 carries a game, these two running backs should be included. I see the 1000+ yards but they have in some cases 140-145 carries. Consider the yards per carry as you look at the candidates.

Here an example of the latest stats for the EBAL (not to pick on them but just an example that was updated today.

Rushing (by yards)

Player G Rush Yards Avg.
Lucas Dunne, De La Salle 9 140 1,309 9.3
George Atkinson III, Granada 9 111 1,066 9.6
Michael Sullas, Monte Vista 7 145 985 6.8
Kyle Alvarez, California 9 100 864 8.6
Damariay Drew, Livermore 9 87 750 8.6

Phone calls start tonight to let the players know they have been selected. If all goes as planned we will have the entire team called and confirmed this week.
