Mr. Football State POY Finalists
Some others in the media have already picked a state player of the year or will do it soon. It’s more of a process, however, for the annual Mr. Football statewide selection. It’s been done every year for more than 40 years and it’s been researched over the course of state history back more than […]

More State FB Teams of the Year
Los Alamitos is the 2022 State Public Schools Team of the Year even with a 9-3 final record. This group of Griffins, however, does make us recall great teams from Los Al in 1994 and 2002.

SoCal/NorCal Players of the Week
During the regular season we had in the range of 500 games to choose from for these honors but once the playoffs started the funnel narrows as the field is basically halved each week until this final week of honoring football players when we only had 26 games in the whole state. Despite that fact, […]
