VTO Sports hosted their VTO Sports Elite 100 showcase at Contra Costa College in San Pablo, CA on Sunday, March 20th. The event had around 85 players from all over the west coast participated. 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.
Catapult Sports, one of the top scouting services nation-wide will be at all the events to help the student-athletes with exposure. One new thing will be the new technological vest that will be available at the events.
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 July 9-10 at West Cabarrus High School in Concord, NC.
COACH VINCE JACOBS OBSERVATIONS
"We had 85 kids registered for this camp. We had some really good kids with quality talent. We had a large group of quarterbacks and a lot of them were young. There was a good group of linebackers as well."
"One kid that stood out to me started out at defensive end and moved over to tight end and won the TE MVP. Lincoln (CA) High School's Dylan Fear is a 6-foot-4, 210-pounder who just looks like a college prospect. I thought he was the standout of the camp."
