Valencia 6'2" 245 senior defensive end Josh Stanton played a huge role in the Vikings week one victory over Palmdale. Stanton has already received an offer from Wyoming and is getting interest from Arizona State and Colorado State.

Stanton filled up the stat sheet last week against Palmdale and finished the game with 7 tackles, a sack and a forced fumble.

"Going into half-time we were trailing by six. One of our safeties, J.J. Wilson got two picks and that really changed the game," Stanton told CLA tonight.

CLA spoke with recent UCLA commit Adarius Pickett (DB/2014) from El Cerrito High School (CA). During March, Pickett attended the UCLA Spring Game and we had the chance to watch him take part in the activities held at the Rose Bowl.

"I was just figuring it out. In March I only had 12 offers, then I came up to 21. I took my official to UCLA and I liked it a lot," Pickett told CLA.

So far this season, Pickett has two interceptions and plays on a stout El Cerrito defense alongside USC 2014 LB commit D.J. Calhoun.

For the second consecutive week, the Mater Dei Monarchs came out swinging and seized control of the game from the outset en route to a dominating 56-7 victory over the St. Paul Swordsmen Thursday night at the Santa Ana Bowl.

After a short touchdown run by Malik McMorris gave Mater Dei a 7-0 lead, Forrest linked up with junior two-way athlete Ben Humphreys on a 51-yard touchdown strike.

Mater Dei extended the lead to 14-0 on an 8-yard touchdown run from bulldozing fullback Malik McMorris. Shifty running back Justin Allen followed that up with a 19-yard scamper for six.
