The state champion Gardena Serra Cavaliers football team began spring practice Tuesday. There were several college coaches in attendance to observe the talent laden Cavaliers in action.

Serra receiver Jordan Lasley has been busy in recent weeks balling out on the 7v7 circuit. Coach Shah from Utah was impressed enough with Lasley's skills to offer the 2014 wideout a scholarship this afternoon.

Utah defensive backs Coach Sharrieff Shah was at Compton Centennial High School yesterday, and that wasn't the only surprise for rising 2014 DB Denzel Fisher. "We just opened spring practice today and I didn't even know they was coming," he told CLA yesterday.

Fisher was held out of practice with a sore back, but that didn't stop the Utes from extending an offer to the rangy 6'2 170 defensive back.

As a child, X'avier Shepherd was a far cry from being thought of as a future NCAA football player. Shepherd was literally afraid to put the pads on. Today, the Lakewood High School senior has a fan base in Utah that has been growing for the past several years, and he has now officially signed a National Letter of Intent to play football for the Utes in 2013.
