Miller was a kid we got to know well over the off season as a standout at our elite events and on the Barton Camp…
As we move deeper into the playoffs two of Oregon’s top players are not the biggest in stature, but are both incredibly talented. TRL Player of the Year Daniel Sherrell (5-9 170 Sr. RB) of Clackamas, and 1st team all conference back Devin Martinez (5-6 171 Sr. RB) of Southridge went off again in 2013 and will be crucial for their clubs during the post season. Sherrell has been…
The biggest upset state wide last week came at the hands of the Glencoe Crimson Tide, after traveling to traditional CVC power West Salem (8-1) and grabbing a 49-34 win over a good Titan team. Head coach Steve Jones has done an outstanding job of getting his guys to focus on the task at hand, which showed in last Friday’s big upset. Time and time again 1st…

Entering the 2nd round of the playoffs this week, the Lakeridge Pacers are one of the better 6A teams in Oregon. They have had a tough last five years going (15-34) from 2007-2012. Cross-town rival Lake Oswego has been one of the most dominant teams in the Northwest over the same time period, making it that much tougher to swallow. That said things have changed as the Pacers…
Some people consider Lake Oswego (5-6) to be down this year and from a record stand point that may be true. What people don’t necessarily realize is the ridiculously tough schedule that they have played and the close losses that they have had. If I was an opposing Oregon team I wouldn’t want to play the Lakers. Sophomore QB Mitch Verburg (6-2 185) has done well and…
A kid you will hear a lot about over the next few seasons is Sophomore LB Joel Dublanko (6-3 215 So.) of Aberdeen, Washington. He is an individual many people already know as his resume takes you a portion of your day to read. To summarize, Joel currently holds three D1 offers and will end up being one of the most courted athletes in the country for his class….

(3-7) Crater @ #4 Jesuit (7-2)
Breakdown: The Comets score a lot of points, but are small up front and Jesuit will most likely exploit that. It should be interesting as Crater will try to air it out and Christian Martinek will be all up in the mix. Trent Werner has been playing outstanding ball, and Chase Morrison went for 276 on the ground against Beaverton in the regular season finale, in Alfieri’s absence.
