Not surprisingly, repeat CIF-SS Southeast Division champion Charter Oak dominated the awards. Wide Receiver/defensive back A.J. Powell was named the Miramonte League’s player of the year with numbers (26 receptions, 390 yards, 58 tackles, 4 interceptions) that must not have told the whole story. Teammate Adam Muema (1,938 yards, 23 TDs) claimed offensive MVP for his exploits at running back and linebacker Keith Smith (132 tackles) defensive MVP.
In all, Charter Oak, which didn’t allow a sinlge point to Miramonte League team this season, including its second meeting with Diamond Ranch, a 21-0 win in the CIF championship game on Friday, landed a league-high 12 people on the All-Miramonte League first team followed by Diamond Ranch’s 10.
