Lake Oswego’s LaMarcus Bell set to return to action

<p>Lake Oswego star and Oregon Gatorade Player of the Year favorite LaMarcus Bell will make his season debut this week as the Lakers host Sheldon.</p>

<p>The 5-foot-11, 190-pound ball-carrier, who is committed to the Utah Utes, missed last week's 40-3 victory over South Medford as an abundance of caution after missing some time early in the summer.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Bell, a returning MaxPreps Junior All-American, rushed for 2,004 yards and 29 touchdowns last season, leading the Lakers to the state championship game.</p>

<p>This season, Lake Oswego is one of the favorites to win the state title and has a loaded roster.</p>

<p><strong><em>Analysis</em> </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The rest of the player of the year contenders are likely thankful to have a one week lead over Bell, who is one of the most special ball-carriers the state of Oregon has produced in the past decade.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I've graded Bell as as low four-star prospect - with potential to develop into a major college contributor.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Lake Oswego has the best skill-position group in the state of Oregon, and Bell is the straw that stirs the drink.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>It's great to have him back! </p>
