Palm Springs blurb in LA Times

[Dave Keefer]

I thought CalSportsFan and others would enjoy this blog post by Eric Sondheimer of the LA Times:

"A starter since he was a freshman, Will Olvera is the senior quarterback at Palm Springs who Coach Dan Murphy can count on whether it's hot or cold, whether the opponent is good or not.

He has helped lead Palm Springs to a 3-0 start.

He passed for 156 yards against Tahquitz, 321 yards against Redlands and 270 yards against Temescal Canyon. He's completing 68% of his passes.

Last season he passed for 3,405 yards and 35 touchdowns when Palm Springs won the Eastern Division championship.

He's only 5 feet 9 but finds ways to get the ball to his receivers."

Thanks for the link Dave. PS had a big win over Murrieta Mesa tonight- one of the two teams that beat them last year. It looks like they should win out until CIF, but anything can happen with HS ball.

Maxpreps has PS and Redlands East Valley as favorites to represent the south in the 2A Bowl. IMO, this is one of PS's better teams. Well balanced with a few D1 commits.

Thumbs up, team is 10-0 and motivated to play well in the playoffs.
