All- star football games Saturday showcase senior standouts. The prep football season ended last weekend, but not all of the helmets and shoulder pads have been put away yet. Two all- star football games take place locally Saturday, and each will showcase senior all- stars from the Sunrise and Sunset regions. The West Charleston Lions Club Charity All- Star Football Game, which was a summertime fixture for the past 4. December and kicks off at 5 p. Saturday at Bishop Gorman. Fall 2014 Dear Lions Club Supporter, The West Charleston Lions Club (WCLC) will be holding its 43rd Annual Charity All-Star Football Game on Saturday, December 13th.
Also, the Las Vegas High School Senior Bowl takes place at 1 p. Faith Lutheran.“This is going to be a great change for us, and we’re very excited,” said John Klumbach, co- chairman of the West Charleston Lions Club charity game. With the state finals being over, we’re looking for a better turnout. It won’t be 1. 15 (degrees) in the stands. It’ll be football weather, which is a huge advantage for us.”Klumbach also said moving the game to December allows more college coaches to attend — it takes place during an NCAA- approved contact period — and added that the turnout for the team activities leading up to the game has been markedly improved.“In June, kids have senioritis,” Klumbach said. They’re moving on and get out of shape, or they’re working.”The Sunrise Region all- stars have won the past two games, including 3. June 1. That game featured several college- bound seniors, including Most Valuable Player Donnel Pumphrey of Canyon Springs, who saw significant playing time as a running back for San Diego State this fall. The rosters for the 4. Palo Verde’s Darwin Rost will coach the Sunset Region, and Brian Castro of Green Valley will lead the Sunrise team. Admission to the game is $1. We had to have two games in one year to avoid skipping a senior class, which we did not want to do,” Klumbach said. Every year from now on, it will be in December.”The Las Vegas High School Senior Bowl is in its third year. Admission is $7.■ NEWMAN NAMED STATE PLAYER OF YEAR — Liberty senior quarterback Tyler Newman was selected the Gatorade Nevada Football Player of the Year.
