2014 Recruit Roundup: September 30, 2013

Dimitri Flowers, TE, 6-3, 220 lbs. (Churchill HS, San Antonio, TX)

The Chargers dropped a close contest to Madison on Friday night, 28-26, and moved to 3-2 on the year...but Flowers did all he could to get the team the win. In fact, Flowers was virtually the entire Churchill offense in the game—rushing for 75 yards and 3 TDs and catching another 49 yard TD. Churchill will try to rebound this weekend against MacArthur.

Jalen Greene, QB, 6-2, 185 lbs. (Serra HS, Gardena, CA)

Greene didn't have his best outing on Friday evening, but Serra got the win against Narbonne anyway—improving to 5-0 in the process. Greene shook off 2 INTs and a lost fumble and rallied for 81 rushing yards and 81 passing including a 5-yard TD strike. By my count, Greene now has 1,137 passing yards and 14 TDs against just 3 INTs. On the ground, he's added another 415 yards and 5 scores. Serra has a bye this week and will return to the field against Harvard-Westlake on the 11th.

Mission Viejo moved to 5-0 after a dominating 56-7 win over Aliso Niguel on Friday night. The Diablos will take on Redlands East Valley (Derrell Acrey's alma mater) on Friday. Stats for Modster have been hard to come by, so if you have an inside track on some, let me know.

Drew Sample, TE, 6-5, 235 lbs. (Newport HS, Bellevue, WA)

Newport moved to 3-1 on the year after a defeat at the hands of Issaquah on Friday night. Full game stats were not released, but Sample did have a 48-yard receiving TD in the game. Newport plays Ballard this weekend.

Brandon Lewis, CB, 5-10, 170 lbs. (Pleasant Grove High School, Elk Grove, CA)

Khalil Oliver, S, 6-1, 170 lbs. (Rocky Mountain High School, Meridian, ID)

Edison dropped their second straight contest on Friday night, losing to Mater Dei by a score of 21-7. They sit at 2-2 on the year with San Clemente coming up this weekend.

Jaylen Johnson, DE, 6'3", 235 lbs (Centennial High School, Corona, CA)

Centennial defeated Carson on Friday night to move to 3-2 on the year and then Johnson promptly boarded a plane and arrived in time to watch the Broncos defeat Southern Miss on Saturday night. No stats were logged by Johnson on Friday, but through the first 4 games, Johnson is credited with 44 tackles (2 for loss) and 2 sacks. Centennial plays Norco in two weeks.
