Antioch is one of the fastest rising programs in all of Northern California. Lead by national C/O 2017 #1 Recruit, Alabama Commit Najee Harris, Antioch has established itself as a hotbed for college bound talent. Class of 2018 top prospect, Omari Harris, will see more action this season touching the football while continuing to cause havoc on defense. Defensively the Panthers have one of the top cornerback duos in all of Norcal with Isaiah Dunn and Antione Tanner. The most impressive part of this team is it’s unselfish offensive line play that makes for one of the top run games in the country. Justin Kennard, Saia Fetuu and 2018 TE Iuni Mauga will continue open up holes on the line. In possibly one of the most anticipated match-ups in years, Antioch will travel to Concord to face national power De La Salle in week 5. As teams load the box to stop the run, the Panthers will look to Issac Freytes and freshman phenom Gaudie Campbell to make plays through the air.
