De La Salle Spartans
To say the Spartans were once the most dominant team in high school football would be an understatement.
From 1991 to 2021, they did not lost a game to a team in Northern California (a record 151 wins in a row), and they played in 14 consecutive state championships from 2006-2021, winning half of them.
Famous alumni include former NFL players such as Maurice Jones Drew, Amani Toomer and Derek Landri to name a few.
The 2024 Spartans are 5-0 to begin the season.

NFL Academy
The NFL Academy's current roster features just over 60 student-athletes ages 16-19 who receive a full-time education to go along with a life skills program, intensive training, and NFL best practices and resources.
While many of the players hail from Europe, the team's reach is world-wide and has attracted talented athletes from places like Senegal, Egypt and Nigeria.
Many players from the NFL Academy have moved on to play football at Division I programs in the United States, and several have found their way on to an NFL roster.
