The NCAA football recruiting trail is heating up. Several top juniors and upcoming seniors are beginning to get a feel for exactly which Division I colleges are interested in their services. Standing 6'6" and tipping the scales at 340 pounds, it's no mystery that Emerald Faletuipapai has the size to play at the next level. The great thing about Big Em' is that he doesn't solely rely on his size and is eager to improve. "The first week of spring football went by great. I'm looking forward to the upcoming practices as the week progresses," Emerald told CLA.

Four star Rancho Verde (Moreno Valley) wide receiver Damore’ea Stringfellow is one of the more coveted playmakers in the football recruiting class of 2013.

Head Coach Mike Grossner gave Dillon Baxter another chance on Sunday, and Baxter once again showed resolve to keep his dreams of someday playing in the NFL alive.

As a former USC Trojan and one-time San Diego State student-athlete, Baxter looks to pick himself up alongside his new teammates and coach at NAIA Baker University in Baldwin City, Kansas. Coach Grossner anticipates the former California high school touchdown record holder to contribute to the offense in a number of ways, similar to the many different positions Baxter played while he starred at Mission Bay.
