LJ FB: 'My number'

Trenton Fudge, star receiver who's back for his senior season, has swapped his old number 19 uniform for number 2.

"It's my number," he said at the Black and Red Scrimmage August 15. "It's my baseball number, too."

The La Jolla High football squad took team photos this week and now a roster is finalized with uniform numbers, just in time for the season's opening scrimmage against Imperial Sat., Aug. 22, at 5 p.m., on Country Day's field.

Imperial is the high school which Royce Freeman attended. Freeman is the record-setting running back who starred for Oregon last year as a freshman. Imperial defeated La Jolla 34-20 in the CIF playoffs in 2012.

Fortunately, the Vikings won't have to face Freeman. They will try out their stuff on an opposing contingent for the first time this season. It won't count, but it will help give Head Coach Jason Carter a picture of where things are right now.
