Hard work pays off, but the job is not done. I just ran an electronic 4.35 with my speed coach @moody_emmanuel @Kmine4 @CoachJayBanks @DanSwanstrom @David_Josephson @Coach_Fab @CoachDaft @CoachPagan @SteveFryer @Footwork_King2

Got a huge win against a talented Orange team last week. Graded perfect 5/6 games by OL coach and only 5 total snaps QB pressured (250+ pass snaps). Please check out my midseason senior highlights! @SMES_football @CoachDOShea @CoachCamSMES hudl.com/v/2Lr7yE

Excited to be named 1st Team All League in our first year in a new competitive league. Looking forward to what the future holds. hudl.com/athlete/128363… @smes_football @CoachBurns__12 @Kmine4 @CoachDavis015 @CoachKDubFB @GregBiggins @ocvarsityguy @adamgorney @BrandonHuffman

One last round-up of the top local area football performances for the second round of the CIF-SS playoffs, as JSerra, San Juan Hills and St. Margaret's all fall.

Season ended in the quarterfinals. Not what we wanted but I’m proud of my team, and I’m proud of the fact that I could make it back after my injury. hudl.com/v/2HtXBY @Kmine4 @CoachBurns__12 @smes_football @ocvarsityguy @GregBiggins @SteveFryer @adamgorney @BrandonHuffman

After a great talk with coach Jordan, I am excited to announce that I have received a PWO offer from TCU! Very grateful to have the opportunity to play at a high level. @TheRBCoach @Kmine4 @SteveFryer @ocvarsityguy @smes_football @GregBiggins @adamgorney @BrandonHuffman

@ChemicalAT @SGVNSports St. Margaret’s is a completely different team now than when they played Muir. Tartans were without their two best players (Sam Dunnell and Derek Smith), who have both made enormous impacts since returning healthy, especially the last two weeks.

Great team win last night in the first round of playoffs. I ended the night with 9 catches for 200 yards and 3 touchdowns. Can’t wait to get back out there next week. @Kmine4 @CoachBurns__12 @smes_football @TheRBCoach @GregBiggins @ocvarsityguy @adamgorney hudl.com/v/2Jk88d

As the games get bigger, so do the performances. Here are the other handful of outstanding local area performances:

Glad to be healthy after taking a few games off for an injury, here is my highlight tape from the last 2 weeks since being back. @Kmine4 @CoachBurns__12 @SMESAthletics @smes_football @TheRBCoach @ocvarsityguy @GregBiggins @adamgorney @BrandonHuffman hudl.com/v/2JbLdv

Great team win this Friday. Thanks to a great snap by @Derek_Smith23 and hold by Will Viola I was able to hit a 53yd fg. @KohlsHighlights @KohlsKicking @Chris_Sailer @Diego_Marquez95 @smes_football

Smith hauls in the Ruff pass in the corner of the end zone for another TD! Tartans now lead 28-0 over Saddleback @SOCoPrepSports @SouthOCsports @OCSportsZone @ocvarsity
