L.A. Roosevelt lineman is making noise
September 21, 2009 | 12:51 pm
Offensive linemen don't receive a lot of attention, unless they're called for a holding penalty. But L.A. Roosevelt senior offensive tackle Ramon Barraza is generating excitement by the way he's blocking.
"He's doing a fantastic job," Coach Javier Cid said. "He's smashing linebackers. He puts them on their back."
Barraza has helped Roosevelt to a 3-0 start. Another important contributor has been junior running back Jesse Lira, who rushed for 186 yards in a 27-13 victory over L.A. Wilson.
"He's the most improved player," Cid said.
