No I did not see the game.  But here are 2 links for basic game results and player stats.  Normally, All Star games are dull and players rusty, especially on O.  The D shows up and out performs da O.  14-3 team Mauka won, low scoring game, both sides O rusty.

USC had 5 players at the game.  Tomu Topui,-DL, Boobie Feaster-Wr, Chris Henry-Wr, Talanoa Ili-LB, Simote Katoanga.  Looking at the Mauka and Makai rosters, shoot they were some very good players in da P. Bowl game.

Both MVP’s, Toia-DL-Texas HS and MacFarland-Wr-Florida HS for the 2027 class are uncommitted.

MacFarland 5-8, 175 lbs, 10.35 100 m, plays for IMG Academy but from Las Vegas; he is the #4 Wr in nation, big Ohio St lean.

Toia, 6-3, 310, #7 DL nation is uncommitted, but open, meaning looking for the highest $1 offer, lol.

I looked him up and was surprised he was from Texas. And then saw he is the younger brother to the ucla player, Jay Toia who I had forgotten about.

Good info Bruddah Pasadena.  The family must have moved from Simi Valley, S. Calif.  Brother Jay played for Grace Brethren HS.  Back then GB went from a SS CIF, 8 man FB, then to 11 man D-13, 2010.  By 2015 they kept climbing the rankings, finally winning 3 SS CIF titles D-8 & 2 D-3 titles, in 2017-19.

Shoot we, USC landed Jay Toia a 1st team SS CIF DL.  Jay practiced during USC’s spring camp, but within a few months decided to leave for UCLA.  Shoot we missed out an awesome DL; he did well at UCLA, ended up All PAC 12,1st team.

Dang, he comes from a family tree of very good FB players.  Now his younger brother, George is the #7 DL for the 2027 class.  Amazing family.

From Wikipedia.  Toia’s brother Siaki Ika was a defensive tackle at LSU and is currently a defensive tackle for the Kansas City Chiefs. His brother Soane Toia is a defensive lineman at San Jose State, his cousin Stanley Ta’ufo’ou was a defensive lineman at USC and Toia’s brother Abitoni is a rugby player in New Zealand.[16] Toia’s uncle, Chris Maumalanga, played in 14 games for the New York Giants and Arizona Cardinals from 1994 to 1996.
