MESA, Ariz. (KPHO/Gray News) — A football player in Arizona says his high school playing career is over after being dismissed from the team following a dispute over a play call. Gunner Brewer, a senior at Desert Ridge High School, said the situation unfolded on the final play of the game two weeks ago when he was quarterbacking the team. “Basically called the play, trusted my running back behind me who scored a touchdown, definitely was rolling with him,” Brewer said. “The play was originally called for me, but I definitely wanted him to run the ball and get us the first down to basically seal the game.”Brewer said changing the play at the line was something he had been allowed to do under his previous offensive coordinator, who was fired at the end of September.

Sondheimer With six baseball teammates playing football, La Cañada QB Joe Bell is in sports heaven - Los Angeles Times

Almost every day, quarterback and left-handed ace pitcher Joe Bell looks out on the La Cañada High football field and sees faces so familiar he might as well be taken back in time to the days of playing in the sandbox, in the street, in the backyard or at the local park. It’s so fun as a high school senior to know the person at your side has been your friend and teammate for years. It’s the magic of going to your neighborhood school and being a multisport athlete. There’s his younger brother, Jake, a sophomore middle linebacker and his catcher since birth. There’s Brandon Mohaghegh, a receiver and outfielder; Chase Regan, a running back and second baseman; Ross Piken, a receiver and pitcher; Ethan Wong, a right offensive tackle and designated hitter; and Caythan Kim, a left offensive tackle and outfielder.
