Signings
December 20, 2007 by admin
Two other Sierra players who keyed a 9-2 season, a national ranking and a berth in the Hawaiian Punch Bowl/Northern California championship signed with Big Sky Conference schools. Offensive linemen Clint Lessard of Rocklin is off to Sacramento State, and Anthony Patterson of Oakmont is headed to Montana State. Sierra safety Dan Hart of Del Oro is headed to UC Davis.
Sacramento State also signed offensive lineman Peter Lenz, a 6-3, 300-pound guard from City College of San Francisco.
“We felt he (Lessard) was one of the top kids in Northern California,” Sac State coach Marshall Sperbeck said. “We’re very excited to sign him.
“(Lenz) is another kid we had rated real high.”
Sperbeck said he expects to sign one or two more players in the next few days.
Other ARC players to sign included tight end Brad Walker of Woodcreek (Idaho State) and defensive back Shane Scott of Del Campo and linebacker Treston Teague of Cordova (both Southwestern Oklahoma State).
The first day high school football players can sign national letters of intent is Feb. 6.
Rest of story here.
I am excited that we have some massive size coming to the O-line this year to make holes for Bryan and Travon. Can it be September yet!
Those were two great signings. Now we’re talking. Those guys will be like having juniors in college lining up this fall. Awesome!!
How about some d-line?
…..the trio is comprised of offensive linemen Peter Lenz and Clinton Lessard and defensive end Cory Dehl. Lenz and Dehl come to Sacramento State from perennial JC power City College of San Francisco. Lenz (6-3, 300) was a starter at guard all season and helped lead the Rams to 11-1 overall record and victory over Mt. SAC in the state championship game.
Dehl (6-1, 250) tallied 28 total tackles as a defensive end in 10 games. That total included 7.5 tackles-for-loss, and 7.0 sacks for a combined loss of 49 yards. He also had one pass breakup, recovered a fumble and blocked a kick. In the state championship game, Dehl had four tackles, including two sacks for 20 yards.
