Day one at the IMG 7v7 National Championship gave CLA our first glimpse at what the competition is like down in Florida. Going undefeated in the first day of action, South Florida Express looked cruised through their bracket. The Express' stingy defense only gave up 9 points over the first two games and 2014 quarterback Sean White was on target throughout the day.

Loyola 80, Calabasas 65

Parker Jackson-Cartwright strung together a dazzling triple double of 15 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists, while Max Hazzard unleashed in like fashion with 29 points and 10 rebounds to lead Loyola past Calabasas. Thomas Welsh was just as terrific too with a putback jam and two hand bangout among the highlights of his 22 points on 10 of 12 FG (mostly in the paint). Welsh also snatched 14 rebounds, giving Loyola three players who posted at least a double-double.

The Southern California 7 on 7 circuit has always given way for talent to show off their skills in a competitive setting. This has truly been the case for Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei athlete Matt Rockett. The wide receiver / defensive back has been playing solidly for his high school 7v7 team as well as Team AIGA and we were able to catch up with him to talk a bit about his recruitment, what the 7v7 experience has done for him and more.

Throughout the season many people have speculated that Jackson is leaning one way or another, but you can get the real deal right here.
