2015 RAIN FOR RENT

DEFENSIVE ALL VALLEY PAG METER ALL STAR TEAM

After his senior year, BB will go down as possibly the best linebacker in Bullard history. He finished with 116 tackles with 5 sacks. Baker will be up for Pag Meter Defensive Player of the Year in 2016

Mario Salorio-Senior-Chavez Titans

One of the best to ever play for Titan nation. He was the South Sequoia league MVP and made 162 tackles. The team leader will be missed next year

Cameron Lamanuzzi- Junior-Bullard Knights

The Italian stallion had an outstanding year on both sides of the ball. Lamanuzzi was a team leader that made 96 tackles, 3 sacks, picked off 2 passes, works hard, and is the kind of player that head coach Donnie Arax loves to coach. He is one of the best linebackers/ tight ends in the valley and I can’t wait to see Lam in 2016!

Bryson Young-Senior-Buchanan Bears

One of the reasons why the Bears were so good on defense. When he turned it on, the All TRAC player was the best. He was big, fast, and strong-college dream player

Angel Garcia-Senior-Tehachapi Warriors

All Angel does is make tackles and the Warriors are going to miss their team leader. He made 121 tackles and made over 100 plus tackles in 3 straight years

Ricky Leung-Wai-Junior-Ridgeview Wolf Pack

When you win back-to-back section championships, you have to have a good defense and it started up front. He was big and physical and tough to block. His senior year will be off the charts

Ben Parker-Senior-Buchanan Bears

A beast on the edge and a big reason why the Bears were so good on defense. He played hurt at the end of the year and still was TRAC Lineman of the year. 6-5 and fast, Parker has a great future

Leeval Tatum-Senior-Edison Tigers

One of the strongest players in the Valley, when LT turned on his motor he was unstoppable. He was a big part of the Tigers Valley Championship team his junior year, and controlled the line of scrimmage on the defensive side his senior. He was always double teamed. Next stop in UNLV

I will let you in a little secret...the Tulare Union offensive line was very good. Alonzo was strong and fast and back to back on the EYL All Star Team

The most physical linebacker in the valley for the Valley Champions. Nobody ran up the middle against the Patriots. He made 78 tackles and recovered 4 fumbles. Next stop the UCLA Bruins

Jakell Tomlin-Senior-Bakersfield Drillers

A coach's dream player because all Paul Golla had to tell Jakell was to stick with the other team's best receiver. One of the best lock down corners in the state. On offense he caught 30 passes for 666 yards in an offense that struggled throwing
