2007 All Mercury News Football Team

Steven Fanua (Milpitas) and Jacob Feagai (Piedmont Hills) have been named to the 2007 San Jose Mercury News All Star Football Team.

STEVEN FANUA, MILPITAS

Linebacker | Junior | 6-1 | 215
No one delivered more bone-rattling hits than Fanua, the player described as an "animal" - a compliment in football lexicon - by more than one opposing coach. Given the freedom since his sophomore year to shoot the best gap to make a play, Fanua averaged 14 tackles (138 total) and had six sacks in earning his second All-Mercury News first-team honor.


JACOB FEAGAI, PIEDMONT HILLS

Offensive line | Senior | 6-5 | 305
Feagai has a collection of Division I schools awaiting the results of his SATs. And, no wonder, he has size, speed, and ability. Feagai, who has been timed at 5.0 in the 40-yard dash, is noted for his footwork. And he is durable, having started 36 consecutive games for the Pirates since his sophomore year.

Matt Turituri (OL, 6'3, 225, Jr, Wilcox, Santa Clara) was named to the Second Team. Kalani Markle (RB, Branham, San Jose), Havelock Pomele (RB, Milpitas), Nick Pula (DL, Evergreen Valley, San Jose), Erwin Taliaoa (DB, Overfelt, San Jose) were named Honorable Mention.
