The Campolindo program is on an all time high right now. The freshman lost their first game of the season, way back on September 1. Since then, the Campo program has rattled off 32 wins in a row.

To answer your question Norcalfball, the Campo JV went 10-0. The only league game that was close was the Dougherty Valley game @ 21-14. The average score this year was 35-10.

I’m an Encinal Grad and love reading about our Jets, but lets not turn every post into a Jet Pride showcase. Let the fans of the DFAL enjoy what these kids accomplished this year and congratulate them on making All League.

Yes I agree that Banks is one of the best players in the bay area this year. I have seen him play just about every position for the Jets this year. He is what you call a big play maker.

Yes MiraMan I will agree with you on the quality of Play from the Matadors and the good season thea they had. On Banks… I had a chance to watch this young man come in when a freshman and he got better each year. Trodder also and keep in mind that most good backs run behind a good O-Line (exception Barry Sanders) Liked what i saw in Anderson but he needs to do speed training gotta get faster.Thanks for the word and as always.. Jet Pride!

OFMC,

Encinal put it all together against Miramonte and looked great doing it. Banks’ talent is obvious as alot of what he does is in the open field (receiving, coverage, open field tackling). Trodder is a great back, but much of what he does is behind a great O-Line and great blocking. I just don’t know how good he would be without the support. He’d be very good, I just can’t tell how good.

Miramonte had a great season with wins over alot of quality teams. Only losses to Encinal and Campo. And we did it with some serious holes in our game. Did you see the size of our linemen?? Our biggest lineman that played against Encinal is listed at 220, but probably wieghs 205-210 with pads on! Hell, your QB outweighed our bigget linebacker by 35 pounds! And limited running game to support Anderson. I’d have to say the coaches did a good job getting 10 wins with the material on hand and the kids certainly gave it all they had.

MiraMan, Glad that you can see it was not just hype. Didn’t see u at the 50 Yrd line though. Just kidding. I started walking when i saw the clock counting down. Miramonte is not bad team at all and Coach Schram is a Gentleman. No words for Jon Trodder? Jet Pride!

NFL,

I saw the cheap shot you are referring to in the game where the kid hit Banks (who was holding on an extra point). I can tell you on good authority that it was just a kid doing something stupid. The kid that did it was a sub for an injured player – just didn’t know what he was doing or got excited or something. Miramonte coaches wouldn’t play dirty like that and parents wouldn’t stand for it if they did.

In terms of Bo Banks, he seemed equally good in the Tam game, so I just think he’s that good!

In terms of QB, we have a good backup and a good JV QB. We’ll have to see. I don’t think either will be a Ross Anderson, Drew Bennett or Ken Dorsey, but we will put a solid team on the field. Equally challenging are the large number of skill players that graduate.

One last comment, POY:

Offense- Bret Stephens, Campo
Defense – Fredelli, Campo
