I remember when I was 6 years old and my brother used to go seek out guys that were 13 to come over and play football against me while he was the permanent quarterback. I didnt know exactly what the age difference was, but I was already playing against older guys. – Junior Seau
As a sophomore, I wanted to play varsity in three sports. And I accomplished that. It was a great feat that year, and something I held special. I wanted to bring a championship team to Oceanside High School, and it happened. It was a great year that I will never forget. – Junior Seau
