Prep football in July

It's not too early to think about high school football, at least when it comes to all-star games. The East-West All-Star Football Classic's final rosters were announced today, and the game will be played July 14 in Napa, where hopefully it's a tad cooler than the Sacramento Valley. All of the players are graduating seniors and it will be the final prep football game of their careers.

There's three Davis High players on the East roster: running back Josh Reese and linemen Dan Coronado and Frank Torres. Hard-hitting Blue Devils linebacker Chris Lundin was originally named to the team as well but looks like will be unable to attend.

The East team also consists of seven players from Pioneer (including Davis Enterprise Player of the Year Shane Rosin) and three each from Woodland, Winters and Dixon. It will be the final time for departing Pioneer and Woodland coaches, Joey Montoya and Adam Reinking, to see their players. Montoya is headed for Placer and Reinking to El Camino.
