Football: Utah linemen shine at USC camp
College football powerhouse USC held its two-day "Rising Stars Camp" earlier this week, and several Utah kids participated in the prestigious event, including a pair who have offers from the Trojans, Cottonwood's John Martinez and Timpview's Xavier Su'a-Filo.
Also participating was 6-6, 340-pound lineman Stan Hasiak of Kapolei, Haw., a four-star recruit who has an offer from BYU.
Here's an excerpt from a report on the camp written by Craig Haubert of Scouts Inc. for ESPN.com......
One of the most talented groups as far as depth at the camp was the offensive linemen. Along with Graf, other top line prospects in attendance included Utah natives John Martinez (Salt Lake City, Utah / Cottonwood) and Xavier Su'a-Filo (Pleasant Grove, Utah/Timpview). All three had good showings throughout the day.
Martinez looked very good throughout the day. He is not very big, but he moves his feet very well. If he can add weight on his frame and keep his quickness, he could be an excellent college lineman. Su'a-Filo lined up often at tackle and had some trouble early on, but looked much sharper in the afternoon practices displaying the ability to adjust and learn. We feel the better fit for him will be at guard at the college level.
The offensive line had two pleasant surprises. One was Stan Hasiak (Kapolei, Hawaii) who had a good day lining up at guard. He had good size and displayed the ability in one-on-ones to get hands on and mirror rushers. He, Martinez and Su'a-Filo hung around each other all day and looked like an impressive group.

A pair of receivers from Utah -- Bingham's Michael Edmunds and Timpview's Travis Van Leeuwen -- are participating in Washington's camp today (Friday) and Saturday.
Bingham's Remington Peck, who has an offer from BYU, was considering making the trip to the Northwest, but instead is in Denver playing in a basketball tournament with his high school team. Air Force is the latest school to express interest in the 6-foot-5, 220-pound rising senior who could play tight end, defensive end or linebacker in college, a source close to Peck said Friday.
Speaking of recruits from Bingham, former Miner tight end Austin Holt, who signed with BYU in February, received his LDS Church mission call on Thursday and will serve in the St. Louis (Missouri) mission.
