BEHIND THE ALL-AMERICAN BOWL SHAON BERRY, FOUNDER AND CEO JUNIOR RANK/JUNIORRANK.COM

TOM LEMMING,

With 18 years of experience as a human resources executive and a special love for the junior ranks of athletics, Shaon Berry put it all together to create JuniorRank Sports in 2009. A former running back at the University of Pittsburgh, Berry knows first hand the challenges facing aspiring junior athletes.

SELECTION COMMITTEE CHAIR, CBS SPORTS NETWORK RECRUITING ANALYST

He recognizes the need of a credible authority in evaluating young athletes in grades 6-12, and his customized 1-5 Diamond Methodology fits the bill. This process ranks young athletes based on individual event performance, personal statistics, seasonal highlight videos, community service and academic standing.

Lemming got his start in the media business as a stringer for suburban Chicago weeklies covering high school football games. In 1978, he began scouting football prospects, logging his findings in a newsletter he circulated to college coaches. This earned him the nickname “the mailman” as he delivered information about the best recruits to hundreds of college coaches.

While forming JuniorRank, Berry enlisted the help of his former Pitt teammates, as well as college and professional players and coaches. They form an unbeatable team in helping these young athletes reach their dreams of participating in college sports.

What Lemming would do was to personally interview and scout players from coast to coast. Today he continues his delivery traveling 50,000 miles from December through June, evaluating the top 1,500 football recruits in the nation’s scholastic institutions.

Starting with football in 2009, with plans to expand to basketball, baseball and softball in the future, Berry and his team have organized junior football combines and all-star showcase events throughout the country, continuing to reinforce the importance of character, discipline and academic excellence.

Annually, he produces the Tom Lemming Prep Football Report, considered by many to be “the bible” of college football recruiting.

Berry can call upon his own excellence through his experience at Pitt, and in Cornell University’s Executive Management program. As a father of three, he knows first hand how these youngsters think and what they expect from the future. The mission of Berry and JuniorRank is to develop tomorrow’s role models today by effectively profiling, evaluating, recognizing and appropriately rewarding the nation’s top junior student-athletes in every sport across the nation.

Lemming has written for ESPN, USA Today and The Sporting News, and currently has his own show, “The Lemming Report,” on the CBS Sports Network. College recruiters still visit his home during the May evaluation period to watch tape on players from across the country. Michael Lewis, author of The Blind Side: Evolution of a Game recognized Lemming as the “only national football scout in America”.

Welcome to the 2012 “Semper Fidelis” All-American Bowl On behalf of the United States Marine Corps, I welcome you to the 2012 “Semper Fidelis” All-American Bowl. This inaugural event offers the Marine Corps an unparalleled opportunity to build and strengthen relationships and connectedness with highly competitive and proven young athletes, their influencers and hometown communities. This nationally televised bowl game is also an opportunity for players to showcase their skills on the gridiron and be cheered on by you and our nation. The “Semper Fidelis” All-American game is designed to be different than other Bowls. The players, selected to represent the Eastern and Western halves of the country, were chosen not only because they are among the most talented players in the nation, but also because they bring something more to the game. The Marine Corps and Junior Rank possess a shared value system—we both demand quality of character, excellence in education and proven physical fitness. The commitment the players have demonstrated to their education, the leadership they have shown in school and their communities, and the courage they have displayed in choosing a positive life path makes them an inspiration to their hometown and worthy to be seen on a national stage. The title Marine is “Earned, Never Given.” There are thousands of skilled football players in the country we could have selected to play in our All-American Bowl; however, we only wanted to offer this opportunity to the best players with high moral character who demonstrate leadership in all aspects of their lives. The players here, today, have earned their place on this team and proudly represent their hometowns. The men and women of the United States Marine Corps, like you here at Chase Field today and the players’ families and community members back home, are rooting for these stellar young athletes as they demonstrate their mettle on this national stage. We look forward to witnessing the players embrace this game, as one of many opportunities in life where they choose to lead rather than follow—while upholding the Marine Corps’ values of honor, courage and commitment—which are equally relevant to success on and off the field. Semper Fidelis,

BrigGen. Joseph L. Osterman Commanding General Marine Corps Recruiting Command Headquarters Marine Corps

A FEW WILL LEAD. Our officer candidates are rigorously screened, tested and evaluated for the moral, intellectual and physical qualities required to lead Marines in defense of our nation. If you prove

you have what it takes to become a Marine OfďŹ cer, the path of most resistance will lead to a life of distinction, purpose and honor. Few can be Marines. Even fewer can lead them.

AmericanTO BOWL JUNIORRANK:All STRIVING MAKE A DIFFERENCE The evolution of the Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl and JuniorRank Sports Diamond Flight Camps is definitely a story for the ages. A former football player at the University of Pittsburgh, JuniorRank Sports President & CEO Shaon Berry, set out to make a difference in 2009 by developing an organization that could uniquely train, develop, recognize, and reward young men for their efforts on and off the field. “As I look back to my time as a young studentathlete I remember often times being undisciplined in my approach to both academics as well as athletic excellence. Unable to always steer myself in the right direction as a teenager, as an adult I became particularly sensitive to the desperate need for good role models and positive influencers,” Berry said. Now as both parents and sports fans my wife and I became fed up with turning on the television and seeing stories of players getting kicked out of colleges for fighting, drinking, and academic concerns. Professional sports headlines seemed to be an escalation of the same issues—and in some cases much worse.” We felt like somebody needed to do something about it by stepping up and making a difference. I figured based on some of my own relative shortcomings and passion for change, I figured I was the best man for the job.

Berry’s experiences as an athlete and parent fueled him to develop JuniorRank Sports, a sporting event/ media organization dedicated to developing the next generation of student-athletes through education, evaluation, instruction and unique recognition like our All-American selection process. What’s Makes JuniorRank Different JuniorRank Sports identifies, trains, and recognizes the best football players in the country, and in doing so the company utilizes a socially responsible approach that evaluates performance both on and off the field. Berry has developed a structure that places as much emphasis on sound core values as it does on onthe-field talent. Character, discipline, and athletic and academic excellence play a significant role in JuniorRank’s All-America selections, both at the high school and junior high school level. These core values, along with optional spiritual development and mentoring, are always prioritized and make up an integral part of every JuniorRank athletic event. JuniorRank’s team of former NFL, NCAA, and high school coaches are the very best in the country and truly care about the technical and personal development of each athlete. JuniorRank parents and players define a great experience by elite instruction and the ability to get noticed among a select few, versus several hundred or even thousands of other players.

College coaches from around the country are “coming to us for information on the top student

athletes in the country. With recent rule changes from the NCAA regarding both player behavior and academic performance, information regarding a players attributes both on and off the field have gone from important to critical. Juniorrank Sports is uniquely positioned to speak about both with unparalled expertise.” — SHAON BERRY

How It all Started Berry had the chance to meet veteran Marine Corps Pilot Jack Mackencroe during a chance encounter at a JuniorRank football event in 2010, and it didn’t take long for both to realize they shared a similar vision. Very soon after their meeting, the two began crafting a comprehensive program to help change the future of high school and youth sports. The program combined the Marine Corps hallmarks of discipline, leadership, teamwork and courage with JuniorRank’s expertise related to coaching, training, scouting and mentoring young football players. In other words, the athletes participating in JuniorRank events must strive to be well-rounded individuals and not just athletic talents. These unique ideas were presented to, and eventually powered by, one of America’s greatest leaders, Major General Ronald L. Bailey. Currently serving as Commanding General of the 1st Marine Division, the General—a former college football player himself at Austin Peay State University—was able to immediately breathe life into Berry’s vision of “Developing Tomorrow’s Leaders, Today” and making the United States a better country by individually serving one young person at a time.

General Bailey is unlike any man “thatMajor I have ever known, His presence alone elicits a sense of wanting to do better, not only personally but more importantly for this great country that we serve. I am truly honored anytime that I have a chance to speak with him, as I always walk away with a determination to fight even harder for what’s right.”

— SHAON BERRY During Bowl week, all of the athletes participating in the various events in Phoenix will enjoy experiences that will help them become better football players and better people overall. But they are also part of a greater mission: Through these athletes, JuniorRank Sports and the United States Marine Corps aim to make a better America, one student-athlete at a time.

In 2011, JuniorRank’s 3-day Diamond Flight Camps were launched around the entire country, from as far east as Boston and as far west as Honolulu. The camps included dynamic warm-ups from real life drill instructors, and coaching from some of the NFL’s best to ever play the game. Representatives from the Marine Corps talked to the athletes about the importance of leadership and discipline, while every Sunday included a non-denominational worship service for those interested in participating. All the while, JuniorRank scouts were on the look-out for America’s top talent— in all facets—identifying many of the athletes seen on the field today.

ABOUT TODAY’S

GAME

The amount of future collegiate talent found in today’s game is enough to arm a team for a future BCS championship. While both the East and West squads are blessed with outstanding players, the team most likely to win will be the one that puts it all together in every phase of the game.

EAST OFFENSE

WEST OFFENSE

Rushel Shell (Hopewell HS, PA) should move the ball for the East. He currently holds the career rushing yardage record (7,718) in WPIAL history. Malin Jones (Joliet Catholic, IL) and Kye Morgan (Franklin HS, NJ) will boast the running game. Quarterback Philip Nelson (Mankato West), is the No. 1 signal caller in Minnesota. Plenty of targets are available, including Ja’Quay Williams (Sandy Hill), considered the No. 1 WR prospect in Georgia. Justin Ferguson (Flanagan HS, FL) is ranked amongst the top 10 receivers in the country. An offense is only as good as the men in the trenches, and the East also excels in this area. The leader on the offensive line is tackle Jordan Diamond (Simeon Vocational HS) named the No. 1 OL in Illinois. The versatile Joseph Scelfo (North Oconee, GA) can play guard or center, and long snap. If it can’t make the end zone, the East can depend on the powerful foot of Adam Griffith (Calhoun HS, GA).

Ball carriers are in abundance on this team, namely Greg Garmon (McDowell HS, PA), a two-time All-State runner; Todd Gurley II (Tarboro HS), one of the most explosive runners out of NC; and Tim Wright (La Marque HS, TX) who rushed for 2,400 yards and 33 touchdowns in 2011. Bart Houston (DaLasalle HS) is a signal caller who was the top 2010 Junior Player in CA. Jeff Lindquist (Mercer Island HS, WA) will certainly compete for playing time, as will Skyler Mornhinweg (St. Joe’s Prep HS, PA). These QB’s will gladly throw to Gehrig Dieter (Washington HS, IN) who set two national receiving records in 2011. Other able receivers are Andre McDonald (Hopkins HS, MN), two-time All-State; and Javon Williams (Chandler HS, AZ), who’s at his best in the red zone. Up front, tackle Ronnie Stanley (Bishop Gorman HS, NV) leads a talented group in the trenches. Marshall Morgan (American Heritage, FL) is the No. 1 place-kicker in the country.

EAST DEFENSE There are also all-stars on defense, led by Sheldon Day (Warren Central, IN) considered the No. 7 defensive tackle in the country. Brian Gaia (Gilman School, MD) is one of the strongest DL in the Atlantic Coast region. An outstanding linebacker corps boasts Moana Ofahengaue (Westlake HS, UT), a player chosen for a number of all-star games; Scott Starr (Norco HS, CA), twotime All-State; and Camren Williams (Catholic Memorial HS), the No. 1 ranked player in MA. Demetrious Cox (Jeannette), the No. 1 DB in PA, heads an opportunistic secondary. CB Armani Reeves (Catholic Memorial HS, MA) is one of the best all-around athletes in the country. Don’t throw in Donaldven Manning’s (Miami Central HS, FL) coverage area because the ball will go the other way. Punter Maxx Williams (Waconia HS, MN) will help the East gain field position.

WEST DEFENSE An extremely strong linebacking corps highlights the defense. Vin Ascolese (N. Bergen HS) is the No. 1 OLB prospect in NJ, and Deaysean Rippy (Sto/Rox HS) has the same distinction at ILB in PA. A tough secondary is led by Bam Bradley (Trotwood-Madison HS, OH), the AP Southwest All-District Defensive Player of the Year. Anthony Standifer (Crete Monee HS) was named the No. 1 DB in the state of IL and Wayne Morgan (Erasmus Hall) is one of the fastest players in NY as a cornerback. The first line of defense is Jaxon Hood (Hamilton HS) who was named AZ Defensive Player of the Year. DL Teko Powell (Miami Northland HS FL) is a speedy defender who made 95 tackles, including 14 sacks in 2011. Conrad Ukropina (Loyola HS, CA) is a fine punter who can also place-kick.

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE PLAYERS SELECTED FOR THE SEMPER FIDELIS ALL-AMERICAN BOWL, AND WELCOME HOME TO OUR TROOPS. ENJOY THE GAME.

XENITH IS PROUD TO BE THE OFFICIAL HELMET OF THE SEMPER FIDELIS ALL-AMERICAN BOWL.

ACTIVITIESAHTLETES

off-the-fieldAll American BOWL Memories to Last a Lifetime In addition to playing in an all-star game on national television, the athletes selected for the Semper Fidelis AllAmerican Bowl participated in several events in the Phoenix area prior to today’s game—making this week an experience they will never forget. The festivities began on Saturday, Dec. 31, with the Fiesta Bowl Parade in Tempe, AZ. Athletes marched in the annual Fiesta Bowl Parade, a timehonored Valley tradition that was televised nationally. More than 100,000 fans, visitors and Valley residents lined the streets during the two-mile parade route to witness this spectacular celebration. This year’s parade was characterized by a theme entitled “Spirit of the Southwest.” Later that day, athletes had the opportunity to attend Arizona’s biggest and most exciting New Year’s Eve bash, the 28th annual Fiesta Bowl Block Party, a jam-packed evening of fun and entertainment for the entire family. On January 2, the Semper Fidelis All-Americans took part in the Fiesta Bowl Flag Rollout at the University of Phoenix Stadium. The flag rollout

kicked off the 40th annual Tostitos Fiesta Bowl Game that was played later that day, featuring Oklahoma State vs. Stanford. This is one of the most exciting times of the year in the Valley of the Sun, and for the Semper Fidelis All-American athletes, participating in these events capped off a tremendous experience.

TAKE THE PATH OF MOST RESISTANCE. Our officer candidates are rigorously screened, tested and evaluated for the moral, intellectual and physical qualities required to lead Marines in defense of our nation. If you prove

you have what it takes to become a Marine OfďŹ cer, the path of most resistance will lead to a life of distinction, purpose and honor. Few can be Marines. Even fewer can lead them.

PHOENIXâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S SPORTS EPICENTER

CHASE FIELD

Chase Field

is the epicenter of the downtown Phoenix sports experience. The facility is air-conditioned, and features a retractable roof and a pool. It took 28 months to complete the structure at a cost of $354 million, and the ballpark was officially opened when the Arizona Diamondbacks entertained the Colorado Rockies on March 31, 1998. On Sept. 23, 2005, the stadium name was changed to Chase Field from the previous Bank One Ballpark after the merger between Chase and Bank One. While basically a baseball facility, the park is well-known for its sportsrelated activities. Collegiate football teams have hit the field running, and the stadium was the host of the first-ever outdoor college basketball game. In 2006, Chase Field was the site of the first World Baseball Classic. The retractable roof, that takes 4 minutes to open and close, makes Chase Field a most-desirable venue for sporting events.

PLAYER PROFILE A FAMILY ON AND OFF THE FIELD

When Shannon Messick convinced Courtnye Wynn to play football, he wound up with more than a great player. He also got a son. Christian High School Assistant Football Coach Shannon Messick and his wife Alison are no strangers to service. Shannon, who is an Operation Iraqi Freedom veteran, spent two decades in the Marine Corps as a NonCommissioned Officer, and Alison was a sergeant from 1990 to 1995. In 2000, while overseas in Okinawa, Japan, the Messicks were approached about adopting a young Japanese boy named Eli, and they didn’t hesitate. “It’s something we’ve always believed in, which was instilled in us while we served—to take care of those who need it,” says Shannon Messick. “Three weeks after agreeing to adopt Eli, he was in my home. Years later, coming to the end of my career, my wife and I talked about adopting again, this time someone older.” The Messicks would follow through on that decision, and as a result, Courtnye Wynn, Norfolk Christian’s star defensive lineman, became a member of their family, 10 years after Eli did. The story of how the Messicks and Wynn wound up sharing home and heart is slightly more complex, though, and starts, curiously enough, with volleyball. During a break in Norfolk Christian football practice in 2008, Messick had darted inside the school when, in walking past the gym, he saw, “this enormous kid playing volleyball.” 46

That kid was Wynn, then a freshman, who was large, but also incredibly athletic. After watching Wynn play, the first thing Messick wanted to know was why he wasn’t out on the gridiron. Wynn, who was living with his grandmother at the time, explained that he wasn’t allowed to play football and that he preferred basketball anyway. “I told him that he looked like a football player to me,” Messick says. “But at the time, there was nothing I could do to get him out on the football field. Fortunately, we’re a small school and all the coaches are asked to serve as mentors, so I was able to keep an eye on him. Every time I saw him I kept reminding him that he had a great frame and would be a dominant football player.” Even though he wasn’t playing football yet, Wynn says he felt an instant connection with Messick. “I grew up on Oak Hill Avenue in Baltimore, and that’s a pretty rough area of Maryland,” Wynn says. “He’d lived in a part of Virginia that was a predominately white neighborhood. But that didn’t matter—I felt that I could talk to him about anything.” After a year, Messick was finally able to get Wynn on the football field, although some trouble at home and the then-sophomore’s raw play meant he wasn’t playing a lot. Despite this, Messick and Wynn drew closer as the year progressed. “I would often drive Courtnye home after practice,” Messick says. “He started swinging by my house for dinner. Eventually, he began spending the weekends with me and my family.” Wynn grew close with Alison and their three children, Jacob, Eli, and Michaela, and that summer, when it looked like Wynn might have to move back to Baltimore to live with his mother, the Messicks took the first step toward making Wynn an official member of their family. “I did not want to see Courtnye return to Baltimore, and

I don’t think he did either,” Messick says. “His grandmother granted us power of attorney. Not long after that, he asked if he could stay with us permanently.”

The Messicks became Wynn’s legal guardians in January 2010. “[Coach Messick] always told me that if I needed a place to stay, he would be there for me,” Wynn says. “He was my favorite coach and I looked up to him. And really I’d always felt that we had a father-son bond.” “It sounds cliché to say, but it’s a lot like the movie ‘The Blind Side,’” Messick says. “Sometimes, there’s some good-natured ribbing about that.” Messick’s military background strongly influenced his relationship with Wynn, both on and off the field. “A highly-functional combat platoon is very similar to an 11-man defense,” Messick says. “There’s a high level of discipline and there’s an emphasis on working together, which we stress as a staff. At home, Courtnye really hadn’t had that sort of discipline before, but we’ve set some parameters and he’s really flourished from it. “Part of the Marine Corps ethos is about setting boundaries and giving people enough room to fail but then building them up constructively,” Messick continues. “I’ve trained Marines for a long time, many of them similar to Courtnye in that they were very athletic, alpha males who didn’t have a strong male presence in their lives growing up. And just like them, I think giving Courtnye that structure and discipline has allowed him to learn and grow.” The move to a more highly-structured environment took Wynn some getting used to. “It was strict at first, but having three younger siblings in the house made it easier to adapt,” he admits. “More than my approach, it was Courtnye’s willingness to learn and behave that made the transition easier,” Messick says. “He learned that quickly and really benefited from it.” 47

PLAYER PROFILE And just because Wynn and Messick were sharing a roof doesn’t mean the coach went any easier on his son on the field. “Oh man, I did not have it easy,” Wynn laughs. “I think I got it worse than anyone else.”

“Courtnye really hadn’t had that sort of discipline before, but we’ve set some parameters and he’s really flourished from it.”

Messick shares a chuckle at that too. “I know what Courtnye’s talking about,” he says. “I do push him hard, and I know that to get the best performance out of him, sometimes I have to tick him off. But we’ve got a great relationship.”

“A lot of times, when you visit a school, they try to downplay the academic side of the equation, and make it seem like it will be easy for you to do well,” Wynn continues. “It’s almost like they don’t tell you how it really is. But I didn’t want to breeze through. Between my parents and Norfolk Christian, I’ve been getting pushed academically for years, and I know I’m going to be pushed at Virginia, too.”

The smooth transition wasn’t just important to Wynn for football reasons. The fact that the Messick’s were granted power of attorney the summer before Wynn’s junior year meant that he was going to be going through a major life change at one of the most critical junctures in a high school student’s academic career. But rather than be a hindrance, the change actually spurned the already bright Wynn to even greater academic heights thanks to Shannon and Alison, whom he affectionately calls “Mom” and “Dad.”

The Messicks took another step to ensure that Wynn’s college visits focused on the academic side of the equation: For several trips, including the one to Virginia, it was Alison, not Shannon (himself a former athlete), who accompanied Wynn. “I’ve got relationships with head coaches all over the country, especially on the East Coast,” Messick says. “When a high school coach comes on a visit, sometimes the college coach will pay more attention to the coach than the player. I didn’t want that to happen, so Courtnye went with my wife. She was able to ask tough academic questions.”

“Norfolk Christian is the kind of school that emphasizes academics over athletics, so I have always taken my studies seriously,” Wynn says. “But Mom really pushed me to a higher level. She’s going back to school right now and seeing her going through that at the same time was great. She’s the reason my GPA has risen significantly.” Messick agrees. “My wife is still a Marine at heart and she doesn’t play when it comes to grades, so Courtnye’s become even more focused in school,” he says. Wynn’s attention to academics played a significant role in his eventual commitment to the University of Virginia, where he plans to study media technology with a goal of getting into broadcasting. “When I was looking at schools to attend, one of the things that jumped

out to me about Virginia was that it’s consistently been rated one of the top schools academically in the country,” he says. “And when I went on my official visit there and met with the academic support staff, they made it clear to me that I was going to be challenged academically there.

While he takes his studies seriously, Wynn’s equally as focused on the field. And despite only playing the game for three years, he’s become a force on the defensive line. In his junior year, he racked up 105 tackles, 31 of which went for a loss, and 10 sacks. His senior season was even better. Wynn played both ways and was named to All-Conference teams as an offensive and defensive lineman. He racked up 14 sacks, forced three fumbles, and deflected eight passes. “Courtnye’s made significant strides on the field, and he’s only going to get better the more he learns,” Messick says. “A lot of the things he’s now getting the hang of, other kids learned playing Pop Warner, so we’re making up some ground. But he’s studying film and getting better all the time.”

This past year, Wynn’s role expanded as he was named a team captain for a squad that rebounded from some early season struggles to make a run to the state finals. “I loved this team,” Wynn says. “It took us a few weeks to gel, but we rallied around each other, and I could see the guys grow throughout the year. We got better as the year went on.” Now, Wynn is ready to make his mark at the college level. “I’m really anxious to get out there and do the best I can for the coaches who recruited me and had my back throughout this whole process,” he says. “I want to prove to them they didn’t waste a scholarship on me.” When the postseason all-star games came calling, Messick was touched that Wynn chose the Semper Fidelis Bowl as a nod to everything his new

family has done. “Courtnye’s always been very proud about our time in the Marines,” Messick says. “He had his choice of several bowls, and he chose this one because he knew how much it meant to us, and how our service influenced us.” As he prepares for his son to head to Virginia, Messick ref lects on Wynn’s amazing journey. “I couldn’t be more proud of Courtnye,” he says. “All he needed was an opportunity, and while my family opened the door, he was the one who did all the work and got himself to this point. He’s a success story.” .

“I’ve trained Marines for a long time ... And just like them, I think giving Courtnye that structure and discipline has allowed him to learn and grow.”

Wynn’s selection to the Semper Fidelis Bowl Game has special meaning because of how much the Marine Corps means to his family.

GIVING BACK Bowl Participants Excel off the Field Each of the 100 participants at the Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl is an elite athlete who excels at his position on the gridiron. But when these players aren’t playing football, they’re also making a difference in their own communities—and beyond. While each of the players was chosen to participate in the Bowl by virtue of their abilities on the field, additional consideration was given to the player’s character, academics, and attitudes that most reflect the United States Marine Corps values of honor, courage, and commitment. Here’s a sampling of some of the great work these exceptional athletes have done away from the field.

Walker Williams, an offensive lineman from Tacoma (Wash.) Baptist High School, has been very involved with volunteer work in his community. With the help of his mother, he has organized clothing drives for a local mission. Each year, the drive focuses on one clothing item, such as socks or jackets, for people to donate. “My mother and I were the ones who helped get it off the ground the first year, but everyone in the school participates,” Williams says. “We contacted the mission to say we wanted to participate in a clothing drive, put up a few signs around the school, and set up a big bin for people to donate clothing. After three or four weeks, we took that bin to the mission. “Our football team usually does at least one community service project a year,” he continues. “We had already done something, but this was relatively easy to do and was going to make such a big impact, we decided to go ahead and do this as well.” Williams and some of his teammates have also volunteered their time at the Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital in Tacoma. Twice this past 50

season, players visited the hospital to speak to and play with the children there. “The hospital loves to have people come and visit with the kids,” Williams says. “It is a lot of fun. There are a lot of cool kids there. It’s always great to be able to help make someone else’s day better.” Williams and his teammates do various activities at the hospital, ranging from arts and crafts with the younger kids—“You end up getting glitter all over yourself,” he says—to simply being someone to talk to and share a conversation with. “Helping out there puts a good perspective on things,” Williams says. “One of the girls I talked to had to have major back surgery, and the doctors weren’t quite sure yet if she was going to be able to walk again. It’s one of those things where you realize how blessed you are to be able to play a sport like football and be active.”

David Thompson, a quarterback from Westminster Christian School in Palmetto Bay, Fla., has taken his efforts to communities around the world. Thompson’s grandfather was born and raised in Cuba and started a missionary organization that helps churches in Cuba and across Latin America. His grandfather recently passed away, but Thompson and his father, who now runs the mission, were able to accompany him on his last trip to Cuba. “I had heard that a lot of churches in Cuba have baseball teams, but many of them hardly had any equipment or uniforms,” Thompson says. “So, before we went, I was able to get my school to donate used Westminster Christian uniforms that seemed almost like new. Then we collected used baseball equipment and gear. It all added up to over 800 pounds of baseball equipment.

“One of the greatest things I’ve been able to do is give away all those uniforms and equipment,” he continues. “One baseball or one bat seemed like it meant so much—they were so excited and thankful. Then, we were able to give complete sets of uniforms to several church teams that didn’t have anything.” Thompson has also traveled to Bolivia to help children in orphanages, volunteered time at a shelter for families living in the streets, and been on mission trips to Mexico and Costa Rica. “Bolivia was pretty sad, but also exciting to be a little bit of help,” he says. “It’s been natural for me to go on these mission trips since it’s such a big part of my family. Each time I’ve gone, I feel so blessed to live in America and to have my family. I have seen how difficult life is for so

many people. They struggle for everything. In comparison, my life has been so easy. I know any of them would like to trade places with me in an instant. “But even with their struggles, they seem to be able to smile and be positive,” he continues. “In some small way, I hope I have been able to be of encouragement and help. It is a real privilege to be able to give back.” Another quarterback, Jeff Lindquist of Mercer Island (Wash.) High School, has also traveled abroad to give back. Each of the last two years, Lindquist has spent his spring break in Tijuana, Mexico, building houses. He’ll do the same thing again this year.

GIVING BACK “The experience made me realize how lucky I am,” Lindquist says. “Going down there, it’s easy to see that we have a lot to be thankful for. Helping out a family and community in need definitely made me feel good. I’ve been pretty blessed in my life so far, so it’s important to give back.

program that a couple kids got together,” he says. “In every single classroom, the teachers gave out the little rice bowls, and after a week they would collect them and give extra credit to the kids if they brought it back with money in it. Then that money was sent to people in need in other countries.”

“I also have a lot of fun doing it,” he continues. “I met a little boy named Angel down there, who I hung out with the whole week and became pretty good friends with. That was the icing on the cake.”

Alex Kozan, an offensive lineman from Valor Christian High School in Highlands Ranch, Colo., has also participated in numerous volunteer activities. Through Boy Scouts, he has helped build parks and hiking trails in his community, and he also volunteers for NPO, which donates medical supplies to countries in need of them.

Mercer Island (Wash.) High School quarterback Jeff Lindquist traveled to Tijuana, Mexico, each of the past two springs to help build houses. He also made some friends, including Angel, shown here.

For Marshall Morgan, a kicker from American Heritage School in Plantation, Fla., his work is very personal. Morgan’s brother, Zachary, is a Sergeant in the United States Army and has served in Iraq, so getting involved with Support Our Troops, an organization that sends care packages to military personnel stationed overseas, has a special meaning. “My brother was definitely the motivation behind getting involved,” Morgan says. “One of my teachers is the chaperone for the program. She’s in the classroom every day after school, and we’ll go in there and put together packages to send to the troops. We’ll pack toothbrushes, deodorant, board games, and stuff like that to send them.” Morgan has also been involved in his school’s Operation Rice Bowl drive, which raises money for people around the globe who are in need. “It was a big

But perhaps the activity that gives him the most joy is his volunteer work at a football camp for children with Down syndrome. “I teach kids with Down syndrome about the game and teach them basic techniques,” Kozan says. “The joy and passion that I see in them is what inspires me. I chose to get involved in these activities because there are a lot of people out there who aren’t as blessed as me and they need help.”

THE JUNIOR ACADEMIC ALL-AMERICAN GAMES

13 & UNdER AND 14 & UNDER

As a prelude to the Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl, 123 standout student-athletes in grades 6-8 played in the Junior Academic All-American Game on January 2 at Chase Field. Presented by Russell Athletic, the event featured a 13 & Under All-American Game and a 14 & Under All-American Game, with both games a match-up of East versus West. The junior athletes also participated in a week of team practices, skills competitions, and other activities. All Junior Academic All-American Game athletes will be recognized at halftime of the Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl.

MEET THE HEAD COACHES MARK MCMILLIAN Mark McMillian was one of the top defensive backs in the NFL during his eight years in the league. Drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in the 10th round after a standout career at the University of Alabama, he was named to the prestigious All-Madden Team as a rookie. After a brief stint as a New Orleans Saint, McMillian went to the Kansas City Chiefs where he enjoyed tremendous success under coach Marty Schottenheimer. In 1997 the 5-foot-7-inch McMillian was given the nickname “Mighty Mouse” by his teammates and fans after recording eight interceptions (tied for the NFL lead) and three defensive TDs. He also set a Chiefs franchise record for most return yards. McMillian now resides in Phoenix, Ariz., where he co-hosts a sports radio show, and co-founded the Hard Hittin Radio Foundation, which brings awareness to health issues such as autism, cancer, AIDS, and ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).

ERNEST JONES Ernest Jones received numerous awards as an outside linebacker at the University of Oregon. He was voted defensive team captain, defensive Pac-10 player of the week, and second team All Pac-10, along with being selected to the Blue-Gray AllStar Game. Jones was drafted in the third round by the Los Angeles Rams and enjoyed a six-year career in the NFL, which also included playing for the Denver Broncos (Super Bowl XXXII Champions) and the Carolina Panthers. Ernest retired in 1999 and now resides in Chandler, Ariz.

JOHN BANKHEAD John Bankhead was a three-sport athlete at Chula Vista Christian High School (Calif.), where he earned CIF honors in football, basketball, and baseball. After one year at Liberty University in Virginia, he returned to California and enrolled at Southwestern Junior College in San Diego. He was a two-year starter at Southwestern JC and received second team all-conference honors his sophomore year. Bankhead then received a full scholarship to NCAA Division II Cal Lutheran University, and in 1988 and 1989 he led the Western Football Conference in receiving and earned first team WFC all-conference honors. Over the last several years, Bankhead has been operating Bankhead Elite Sports Training in the Inland Empire and now in San Diego County.

JOHN FONTES John Fontes served as an assistant coach in the NFL, including five years with the Detroit Lions (1992-96). During that time, he teamed up with brother Wayne Fontes, who was the Lions’ head coach, and helped the Lions to the NFL playoffs in 1993. Fontes also served as linebackers coach for the Minnesota Vikings in 2000. He also had a long and successful career as a college assistant coach, working at such prestigious programs as LSU (1987-1990), University of Miami (1986), Northwestern (1985), Oregon State (1976-80), and Iowa (1973).

FEW CAN BE MARINES. EVEN FEWER CAN LEAD THEM. Our officer candidates are rigorously screened, tested and evaluated for the moral, intellectual and physical qualities required to lead Marines in defense of our nation. If you prove

you have what it takes to become a Marine Officer, the path of most resistance will lead to a life of distinction, purpose and honor. Few can be Marines. Even fewer can lead them.
