The 2012 Narbonne squad fell short of getting to the CIF Open Division finals this year, but not short on talent and recruiting. Many argue that this is perhaps the best assembly of City Section players since the Crenshaw Team of ’09-’10. Among the talent are QB Troy Williams (UW Early Spring Enrollee),WR AJ Richardson (Cal Commit), LB Paulo Lepua (Uncommitted), LB Marquis "Red" Lomax (Uncommitted) and LB Keishawn Bierria (Uncommitted).

I had a chance to catch up with Narbonne SR OLB Keishawn Bierria over the course of the recent weeks.

Diamond Ranch HS defensive end Josh Buchholz (DE/2014) will be on many college recruiting lists next season. Buchholz stands 6'4" 250 and displays the type of athleticism that college coaches desire.

Arizona State has already started to show interest in Buchholz. "A lot of interest from ASU. They said I play like the d-end that they're looking for and to just keep up what I'm doing and they will have no problem taking me," the junior Buchholz told CLA Sports today.

Running back Joe Mixon of Freedom High School (Calif.) has been one of the hottest names recently and for good reason. The 2014 graduate took to the Army All-American combine over the weekend and impressed everyone that saw him.

Measuring at 6-foot-1 and 201 lbs., Mixon ran a 4.68 40-yard dash and jumped 33 inches on his vertical. His performance paid off as he received another offer, this time from Utah.
