<strong>Jalen Johnson, Long Beach Poly, 2022</strong>
Johnson was a team captain for Poly this season and played well on defense throughout the entire year. He is a versatile player that can play linebacker or safety at the next level depending on the scheme. He had two tackles for a loss and a sack in a loss against Serra in the Regional Championships.

<strong>Tano Letuli, Cathedral Catholic, 2022</strong>
I know it is surprising to see a defensive player of the week come in a game that had over 130 points scored, but Letuli made big plays when it mattered. The senior had three sacks including a crucial safety in the third quarter.
