The Corona Centennial Huskies host the national powerhouse Bishop Gorman Gaels of Las Vegas Friday night.

Both squads pulled out tough victories last week. Bishop Gorman outlasted nationally ranked Bingham of Utah 23-20 in overtime while Centennial topped Orange Lutheran 52-49 in a high-scoring shootout at the Honor Bowl in Oceanside.

After dropping their opener to Mater Dei 38-18, the Huskies bounced back with an impressive performance against Orange Lutheran. Running back JJ Taylor stole the show, rushing for over 200 yards including an electrifying 79-yard touchdown burst.

Athlete would be the perfect word to describe Mission Hills (CA.) Bishop Alemany class of 2015 star Desean Holmes. Holmes played alongside Steven Mitchell last year and by some of his own games, it seems as though he is ready to break out during his junior year. Now, his recruiting is beginning to pick up.

Holmes sits on four offers right now from Utah, Houston, UCLA and most recently, USC. Those are all well and good, but he wants more and from some schools out east such as "Arkansas, Florida and Florida State."

Dwight Williams is a known player. He’s got all the skills that you want in a linebacker for a program and his offer list is proof of that. He’s worked hard to build up on an impressive list, but now the Gardena Serra (Calif.) athlete is breaking things down a bit.

He talked to us about his recruitment.

Who was his first offer? “My first offer was Colorado.”

The Salesian Mustangs are stocked with D1 bound talent in 2014. Notre Dame assistant coach Mike Denbrock was on hand observing the Mustangs practice. Leading the way for Salesian are hard hitting linebacker Jamardre Cobb and versatile athlete Marquis Ware. Both standouts have already reeled in several offers and should receive more in the future. Safety Kyavha Tezino recently landed an offer from UCLA, adding to a growing list for the talented 2015 defensive back.

Desean Holmes (WR/2015) is making a name for himself and has fully emerged from the shadow of teammate Steven Mitchell, who recently signed to play wide receiver for the USC Trojans in 2013.

Last season, CLA had the chance to watch Holmes' Bishop Alemany squad face Bishop Amat and 2013 UCLA WR signee Darren Andrews. Holmes was the star of the game and finished with more than 170 yards receiving and two touchdowns.

Jamardre Cobb is the real deal. On one hand, Cobb can take a lick and keep on ticking, as proven by the recent 15 stitches he received above his eye after colliding with a teammate during a 7on7 game. On the other hand, he's known amongst the high school and college football world for being the one who delivers the blows.

Today's opening day of the NFA 7on7 passing tournament at Newbury Park High School was well worth the journey. Several of the country's top 7on7 teams were on display. The Gamebreakers, who are coached by former USC Trojan and NFL defensive lineman Chris Claiborne, in addition to the Snoop Dogg All-Stars, B2G Sports and Ground Zero were a few of the top teams who competed on Saturday.

The early games brought excitement to a crowd full of spectators that included parents, fans, players and media, but things got a bit more exciting once the stadium lights were turned on.
