Franklin HS (Seattle, WA): Peyton Siva

Keep an eye out for Peyton Siva (6'0, 160, Soph) of Franklin High School in Seattle on the football field as well as the basketball court. Siva was selected 2nd Team All KingCo 4A the past two seasons at wide receiver.

Franklin's Peyton Siva has the best hops the city has seen since Nate Robinson left Rainier Beach to begin his failed football career. Siva is competitive like Robinson, too. After injuring his wrist at Garfield last year, Siva returned to the bench, let his trainer wrap it up -- then, apparently learning that this would keep him out of the game, started tearing the wrap off.

The trainer had to grab him and pull him back into his seat to keep him from reporting to the scorer's table.

Like Robinson, Siva's a two-sporter. Unfortunately, he broke his collarbone playing football, but he returned to the basketball court Tuesday. Naturally, he was way ahead of schedule.
