Football: Lone Peak stars will walk on at BYU, Utah
Now that they've signed most of their football recruits from the class of 2009, many schools in the area are starting to offer "preferred walk-on" status to several players who did not sign.
For instance, Lone Peak linebacker Zane Mendenhall -- nephew of coach Bronco Mendenhall -- has accepted a preferred walk-on offer from BYU.
Zane, a second-team all-stater, is currently ranked No. 1 in the state at 171 pounds in Class 5A wrestling.
Mendenhall's teammate at Lone Peak, running back and defensive back Quade Chappuis, has accepted preferred walk-on status at Utah, along with Tyson Buck, a former Lone Peak linebacker. Tyson Buck is the son of former BYU lineman Jason Buck.
Another Lone Peak standout, receiver/defensive back Chandler Allphin, signed a letter of intent to play for Southern Utah University last week.
Chappuis ran for 611 yards and averaged 5.9 yards per carry last season. He also had 117 receiving yards and scored seven touchdowns. He led the team with five interceptions.
