VTO Sports hosted their Elite 100 showcase at Fountain Valley High School in Los Angeles, CA, on Saturday, January 27. The event had players registered from mainly California and a few other states represented to participate. Each player got quality teaching and techniques from former college/NFL players. The highlight of the event is the one-on-one competitions where the players can show off their talents.
VTO Sports recognizes a Top 5 and a MVP in each position. They also select special underclassmen as well. Those players get invites to the All-American Challenge to be held June 28-30 in Charlotte, NC. Location is to be determined.
Coach Vince Jacobs, National Camp Director:
“The LA Camp was sold out again this year. This is our 15th season hosting camps and the talent in LA was great. We had elite level athletes in every position group. The Fountain Valley HS hosted this years camp and a, big thank you for the support. The QBs and Linemen groups were special. I’m really looking forward to the All-American Challenge this summer. We had a Rivals National Analyst Brandon Howard on site to evaluate the athletes which was great. We ended the day with our Marines vs Linemen tug of war in which the Marines won.”
