TOP 5 OFFENSIVE LINEMEN IN CIF SAC-JOAQUIN SECTION

5. Simione Pale - Elk Grove - Soph.

Pale is 6-foot-3 and 300 pounds as a sophomore. He's already received scholarship offers from Arizona State and Utah.

4. Apollo Jeffs - Folsom - Sr.

2021 DL Apollo Jeffs (@notoriouspollo) got me with the counter spin. That "icepick" finish felt GREAT in my back! He's gonna tear it up this season at Folsom! @Passing_Academy @CoachKPaulson @CoachJerryBrady pic.twitter.com/LkfbfHdPwm

Jeffs plays on both sides of the ball for Folsom and he's a two-way standout. He's a very important player for the Bulldogs and a big reason why they've started 3-0.

3. Jasdev Banwait - Monterey Trail - Sr.
