ESPN's 15th annual High School Kickoff returns continues Saturday with Bishop Gorman facing St. Thomas Aquinas and St. John Bosco taking on Chaminade-Madonna.
These are two of the final three matchups that have taken place since Aug. 16 and will conclude Aug. 25. Action has featured some of the 28 players ranked in the ESPN 300 and ESPN Junior 300 along with the 11 members of the ESPN 300 that have committed to top Division I programs.
Bishop Gorman finished last season undefeated, and they enter this season as the No. 1 ranked team in the country. They have six total ESPN ranked players: No. 10 senior guard S.J. Alofaituli (Miami commit), No. 13 senior offensive tackle Douglas Utu (Tennessee commit), No. 103 senior center Alai Kalaniuvalu (Oregon commit), No. 187 senior wideout Derek Meadows (LSU commit), No. 17 junior athlete Jett Washington, and No. 46 junior defensive end James Carrington.
Thomas Aquinas was 14-1 last year and are ranked No. 5 nationally. No. 27 junior Justice Fitzpatrick is the highest ranked recruit on the team, but the Raiders have seven players already committed to Division 1 programs along with several other recruits fielding multiple offers.
John Bosco enters the season ranked No. 9 nationally. The Braves have over ten recruits receiving multiple offers, including senior WR Kamryn Jones (Georgia, Michigan, Oregon) and No. 174 junior wideout Daniel Odom.
