MICHAEL JACOT- Sophomore, Clovis North Broncos (WR/RB/PR/KR)
A star was born this year and keep an eye on MJ. This kid is always around the ball and might just be the best punt and kickoff returner in the section. What’s amazing is teams still kicked it to him after being almost untouchable. Next season I can’t imagine any team kicking or punting it to Mr. Excitement. The Broncos have a star for the next 2 years and the offense will get him the ball as much as possible.
TRISTIAN VALLE-Senior, Bishop Union Broncos (OL/DL)
The Broncos don’t win the division 6 championship without their team leader upfront having a monster year.

SEAN HAYMON-Senior, Central Grizzlies (DB)

KAI SUNAMOTO-Junior, Bullard Knights (WR/DB)
Every team would love to have a player like Kai Sunamoto the overachiever! Kai played everywhere and I’m talking everywhere from RB, WR, QB, DB & LB and all at 120lb.
The team leader is going to be very successful in life because he does everything at 100%.

ANDRE BRAVO-Senior, Strathmore Spartans (WR/DB)
Andre would be a star on any team in the section and he played on every down. The East Sequoia League Defensive MVP led the section with 9 interceptions along with 55 tackles. At receiver, caught 32 passes for 435 yards and scored 9 TD’s.
BLAYNE TWISSELMAN-Senior, Templeton Eagles (RB/LB)

The Eagles has one of the most exciting players in the section and Tiger never came off the field. Tiger rushed for 1,787 yards and scored 15 TD’s.
TORY HORTON-Junior, Washington Union Panthers (WR/DB)
After Tory transferred from Edison it seemed like he had much more confidence and was the go to receiver when the Panthers needed a big play. He caught 52 passes for 921 yards and scored 15 TD’s. On defense he had 4 interceptions. Next year look for Tory stats to almost double.
KEANU KUMA-Sophomore, Washington Union Panthers (LB)
One of the best young linebackers in the state. The 6’0, 240 lb baby beast finished with 116 tackles. The next 2 years will be exciting watching the Panthers defense.
MARQUIS MCKENZIE-Junior, California City Ravens (LB)
Might be the fastest linebacker in the Central Section and one of the fastest in the State. Marquis was unblock able. He finished with 119 tackles with 30 tackles for losses along with 14 sacks. He’s 6’0 and still growing!
MATEO MORALES-Senior, Clovis West Golden Eagles (MLB/FB)
The big time leader on and off the field. The TRAC All Star & team captain was a hard nose blocker, ball carrier and stud at Middle Linebacker. With all the great Clovis West tradition with teams & players throughout the years, Mateo Morales needs to be on that list!

TANNER EWELL-Senior, Clovis West Golden Eagles (OLB)
A fierce competitor that has speed and is physical for his outside linebacker position. The TRAC All Star made it tough to run it or throw it on his side of the field. Somebody is getting a good one at the next level.
KOBE JENKINS, Senior, Bullard Knights (RB/WR/DB)
Kobe played everywhere the Knights needed him. If they needed him at running back, wide receiver, slot, tight end…anywhere on defense. The CMAC All Star might just be the most versatile player in the section. His best position is defensive back and that’s where he will play at the next level.
