FORT LAUDERDALE – It is one of the most anticipated stops that Rivals.com or any other camp/combine can make.   A trip to south Florida to see some of the top high school football talent anywhere in the country, and everyone wants to showcase their talent against the best.   On Sunday, some of the best football talent came to compete at the Rivals Miami Elite Camp at St. Thomas Aquinas High School.   DEFENSIVE LINEMEN CAME OUT AND SHINED   As elite talent who will be competing in the 2026 season showed up, there was no shortage of quality prospects on the defensive line.   When the dust had settled, the MVP belonged to Hollywood McArthur Class of 2027 standout Caleb Saint Fleur. The 6'2, 230-pounder, who is a versatile defensive end/outside linebacker, stood tall.   With his 3.3 grade point average and 4.7 (40), he showed why he is so special for head coach Robert Ortega and the Mustangs.
