Mile High Prep League

Mile High Prep League

 You like watching high school football but, it’s only in the fall season? Well, the Mile High Prep League is here to fulfill those wishes. This league is one of twelve teams in the Prep Super League, displaying the admirable talent of high school football from Colorado. This spring, Colorado high school all-stars are playing in the first national high school football league. The goal of this league is to bring attention to college coaches for these young men. 

I have interviewed 2 players from this league, asking some questions about their experience on this Prep Team.
