MaxPreps 2012 Preseason All-NorCal Team


OL - Vita Vea, Milpitas, 6-4, 270, Sr.
Relentless leader in the trenches on both sides of the ball; had 105 tackles and six sacks on defense, too.

DL - Misi Taifane, Grant (Sacramento), 6-3, 300, Sr.
Goes by "Junior" but there's nothing small about Taifane's game or impact for a Pacers team seeking 23rd-consecutive playoff berth.
