<strong>Nicolas Kelly, Long Beach Poly, 2022</strong>
Long Beach Poly is one of the hottest teams in Southern California. The Jackrabbits are loaded with top receivers and it was Kelly’s turn to have his best game of the season in a playoff win over Upland last week. The senior caught 11 passes for 182 yards and two touchdowns. Both were a season-high for Kelly and he and the Jackrabbits will play Cypress in the Division 4 semifinals this week.

<strong>Will Stahl, St. Margaret’s 2022</strong>
St. Margaret’s is a team at a small school full of talented two-sport athletes. Stahl is one of those great athletes and he just signed a lacrosse scholarship to Holy Cross last week. He had 115 yards receiving with three touchdowns in a win against San Dimas. Stahl also threw a 30-yard touchdown pass for the Tartans.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="25224" first="CJ" last="Williams"], Mater Dei, 2022</strong>
Williams is one of the top two receivers in the state and there is a very strong argument that he is number one. He can burn any high school corner in man coverage and he can find holes in zone defenses. He is the best deep threat in the state which is why he is a Notre Dame commit. Williams had six catches for 158 yards and three touchdowns including a nice 77-yard deep ball.
