Cameron Williams, Junior, and  Caden Ochoa, senior Bakersfield Drillers

Pag Meter puts both Quarterbacks in because they both run the offense so well. Williams will be the most exciting and dangerous QB in the valley.  Caden is Mr Steady running the offense for the defending valley champions. They both play in the secondary.

Jacob Torrez, senior, Central Grizzlies

Screenshot_20170806-212910

Played everywhere on both sides of the ball and the TRAC All Star will be one of the best in 2017. The Pag Meter All Star will never come off the field. Made the catch of the year in the playoffs vs Edison. On 3rd and 14, Jacob made a superman catch to get the Grizzlies a huge 1st down. Without that 1st down, Central might not have won that game.

 

Kwadena Watson, junior, Edison Tigers

The CMAC All Star might be the best defensive end at 6-3, 225 lb. Colleges like Nevada, Wyoming and Colorado State are all over Watson.  Watson will also play some tight end.

He is a 240lb running back/DB that is fast and strong that will run you over.

 

Ian Kelly, senior, Golden West Trailblazers

We all know about the Blazers running attack but when they want to throw it, Kelly is the go to guy with his speed.  

 

Bo Jackson, junior, Kingsburg Vikings

A star was born on both sides of the ball after rushing for 1,383 yards and scored 11 TD’s in 2016 for the Vikings. 

 

Keshon Butler, junior, Tulare Western Mustangs

Butler is a guy to keep an eye on. He missed the first month of last year after transferring from Mission Oak so the 6-0, 180-pound wide receiver is ready for a full year.

 

Elijah Isiah, senior, Edison Tigers

Elijah is the best cover corner in the valley. The senior will also play WR and has interest from Nevada, Cal Arizona, Fresno State


 

Keonte Glinton, junior, Bakersfield Christian Eagles

Jevon Bigelow, senior, Central Grizzlies

Was dangerous last year late in the year at running back and kickoff returner. Jevon will line up at RB/WR and some DB. Look for Jevon to be the main running back before too long for the Grizzlies.

 

Carl Jones, junior, Golden Valley Bulldogs

Speedster at running back and the Dogs will want the ball in his hands especially with the very good offensive line.

 

Devyon Miller, senior, Bakersfield Christian Eagles

Mitchel Maggini, senior, Riverdale Cowboys
West Sequoia league player of the year. Plays both ways and the leader of the team. Looking to have a fantastic year.

 

Jack Tobias, senior, Garces Rams

The first-team all-SWYL linebacker was all over the field, leading the Rams with 110 tackles in 2016. Might just be the best linebacker in the south valley.

 

Joshua Kelly, junior, Bullard Knights

He has improved a million percent from last year at wide receiver. He will come in as one of the best WR in the valley at 6-2 with great hands. Josh also plays cornerback at 6-2.  

 

Andrew Ruelas, senior, Tulare Union Tribe

The leader on defense and made 132 tackles with 4 sacks last year.

Eli Riofrio, senior, Clovis West Golden Eagles

Eli will come in as one of the top kickers in the valley. He makes the CW offense even more dangerous.

He rushed for 1,569 yards last year and will be the main back for the Wildcats.

 

Tahj Hart, senior, Hoover Patriots

It seems that Tahj has been playing at Hoover for 10 years and now he’s finally a senior. He is dangerous at running back/LB that is fast and strong. He is the best player on the Patriots for new head coach Justin Nast.

 

Cole Acevedo, senior, Clovis Cougars

He comes in at 6-5, 320, and one of the top offensive lineman in the valley. He will be the leader upfront especially with wrestlers Seth Nevills and Jacob Good not going out for football.
