NEXT PREVIEW: Oregon (Underclassmen) & FSP (Five Star)
In just a few short few weeks the Northwest’s top football organization’s will compete for bragging rights, prior to attending the prestigious Pylon Sports 7v7 national tournament in Las Vegas (March 5th-6th).
On February 21st Team Washington (FSP) Ford Sports Performance will travel to Portland’s Madison High School to battle Team Oregon (EForce) . Both groups feature the state’s top talent, with what could end up being 20+ D1 athletes when all is said and done.
Give Tracy Ford a lot of Credit. The CEO of FSP has taken over the state with his elite training facility, and ability to help get kids to the next level. The roster speaks for itself as WA’s top athletes train with Ford.
Things will get real for both clubs really quick. Team Oregon, led by head coach Alex Brink, will have his guys dialed after their record setting finish in 2015. As many remember last years group made a run to the final four among 120 teams in attendance at the national tourney. Something no Northwest squad has ever done. Oregon won 6 straight games on the second day, before being tripped up in the Semifinals to National Champion Bishop Gorman.
It will be an all day affair as FSP will bring four teams to play EForce. Each organization will represent with the 8th and 9th grade groups + two elite HS teams . Ford’s 8th graders won last year’s 7v7 national title in Vegas, adding to their success.
The first annual “NW Title Weekend” should be one of the most exciting events ever to come through the region, with a majority of the media in attendance. Stay tuned over the next week as we will continue to break down the athletes and the teams for which they play. Next up the Oregon (Underclassmen) and FSP (Five Star).
