Southern California Top Performances: State Championships

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="147708" first="Elijah" last="Brown"], Mater Dei, 2024</strong> Brown is undefeated as a starting quarterback and his poise and ability to perform on big stages is incredibly impressive for a sophomore. He completed 18 of 25 passes for 243 yards and two touchdowns in a blowout win over Serra of San Mateo in the Open Division championship game. He made a throw on the opening drive of the game that was a college level throw and impressed everyone watching. https://twitter.com/latsondheimer/status/1469885448235339778?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1469885448235339778%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fprepredzone.com%2F2021%2F12%2Ftop-offensive-performers-cif-state-open-division-championship%2F <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="145247" first="Jax" last="Leatherwood"], Scripps Ranch, 2023</strong> Leatherwood is one of the top quarterback prospects in San Diego and has risen up the rankings fast this season. The junior threw for 337 yards and four touchdowns in a tight win over Wilcox and he topped it all off with a game-winning scoring drive with 27 seconds left in the game. Leatherwood is a Power 5 talent and will be exciting to watch this offseason and next year. https://twitter.com/GregBiggins/status/1467310216026869761?s=20 https://twitter.com/SBLiveCA/status/1469772703703781376?s=20 https://twitter.com/SBLiveCA/status/1469804871993860101?s=20 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="141935" first="Charlie" last="Mirer"], Cathedral Catholic, 2022</strong> When I watched Mirer earlier this season I thought he may just be a game manager in a gimmick offense. He has proven this season that he is much more than that and can win a game with his arm. He threw two touchdown passes to [player_tooltip player_id="25296" first="Rex" last="Haynes"] in a win over Folsom. He also ran for a 28-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter to put the game out of reach. https://twitter.com/SBLiveCA/status/1469527500837380097?s=20 <strong>Nico Mosley, Mater Dei Catholic, 2023</strong> Mater Dei Catholic had a historic undefeated season and a big reason was how they can beat you multiple ways on offense. Mosley and the running game shined in a win over Central Catholic. He ran for three touchdowns in the 34-25 win. He is smaller and has great burst in open space. He gets to the edge quickly and has good field vision. https://twitter.com/SBLiveCA/status/1469463935204028416?s=20 <hr /> <em><strong>Other top performers:</strong></em> <em><strong>Aiden Agnor, Quartz Hill</strong></em> <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="25278" first="Cooper" last="Barkate"], Mater Dei</strong></em> <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="25225" first="Raleek" last="Brown"], Mater Dei</strong></em> <em><strong>Isaiah Buxton, Mater Dei Catholic</strong></em> <em><strong>Tre Harrison, Serra</strong></em> <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="25264" first="Josh" last="Hunter"], Mater Dei</strong></em> <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="145201" first="Victory" last="Johnson"], Cathedral Catholic</strong></em> <em><strong>Conor Lawlor, Scripps Ranch</strong></em> <em><strong>Dylan Stoney, Scripps Ranch</strong></em> <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="141906" first="Lucky" last="Sutton"], Cathedral Catholic</strong></em> <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="25282" first="Malaki" last="Te’o"], Mater Dei</strong></em>
