The countdown to the 2024-25 high school football season is real and the 209 is gnawing at the bit to get back on the field.
San Joaquin County is home to some of the most talented athletes who represented the area with pride and stuffed stat sheets last season. From speedy wide receivers who racked up thousands of yards in the air to beasts on the defensive line who were like quarterback magnets, last season was filled with star-studded players.
This season will be more of the same as schools across the county are returning big-time players across all positions. These athletes are back for more looking to prove they are the cream of the crop in their respective positions and give their teams a shot at a Sac-Joaquin Section blue banner.
The Record is highlighting some of the top SJ County returners for each position based on coaches’ offseason reports and 2023-24 stats available to the Record, such as MaxPreps.
