Three-Team All-Star Clash in SoCal

Washington's roster includes HS All Americans Will Brennan, Cornu Alfonsu, and Derise Fuga, and the varsity team includes three more players invited to HSAA camp - Bruce Finlay, Tristan Ingold, and Kyle Saalfeld, while JV scrumhalf Noah Wright is also an HSAA camp invitee. Fuga and snappy scrumhalf Malcolm Walton (see video interview of the two here) are part of a very strong Liberty team that only lost twice all season - both times to eventual state champs Budd Bay, which puts three players on the team.

NorCal's roster is still being finalized, but will include representatives from the top teams in the region, including HS All American center/fullback from Jesuit, Christian Dyer, Granite Bay's inspiration No. 8 Tyler Rouse, elusive Bishop O'Dowd backs Paul Saccamano and Joe Moreno, and imposing Peninsula Green lock Josh Warnock. HS All American scrumhalf Nathaniel Short out of Dixon, and as many as three members of Danville's powerful forward presence could also be on the squad. 

Southern California has been able to bring in some of the most acclaimed players in the region's high school leagues, with HS All American standouts Aaron Matthews and Steven Branham heading up a formidable outfit. Liam Jimmons patrols at lock, powerful LA prop Ian Hall and LA/Mira Costa all-everything hooker Juwan Johnson bolster a very strong front eight. Out wide there are HSAA players all over the place, including Travis Heer, Jeremy Fleet, Adam Channel, and Ian Crilly. But those are just the better-known players. Players like Isaiah Leilua, and Aisea Ahoia promise to make an impact, too.
