Football: Northridge safety wins MVP at SoCal B2G camp
Just got a call from Chris Oliver, a University of Utah graduate who now lives in Southern California. Oliver attended the B2G Elite Football Camp at Cal Lutheran in Thousand Oaks, Calif., on Sunday.

He said that Chris Washington, the safety from Northridge High in Layton who has offers from Utah and BYU, was the star of the camp.

Washington, 6-foot-2, 195 pounds, was named the camp's Defensive MVP, which is quite remarkable considering the camp featured dozens of players who have committed to the likes of USC, UCLA and other Pac-10 schools.

"Everyone was asking, who is that kid," Oliver said. "He was really good, especially in the 7 on 7 drills."

Washington got the BYU offer a week ago Saturday, and the Utah offer last Tuesday.

A second-team all-region selection for Northridge in 2007, he has showed well at every camp he's attended this spring and summer. Although he will be a senior this fall, Washington is only 16 years old, having been moved ahead a year in school when he was younger.
