San Diego Sports et Cetera : Brasher to Attend Arizona St.

Point Loma High School’s Bob Brasher, The Times’ San Diego County lineman of the year, said Thursday he will attend Arizona State University.

Brasher, a 6-foot 6-inch, 200-pound tight end and outside linebacker, helped lead the Pointers to the San Diego Section 3-A championship. His best game as a senior was one in which he made 4 catches for 157 yards in a 14-13 victory over Morse for the City Eastern League championship.

“They’re talking about using me at outside linebacker, but I’ll play wherever I can,” Brasher said.

Brasher selected Arizona State over California.

Other oral commitments Thursday included Lincoln defensive back Calvin McGee to Utah and Riverside County linebacker Wayne Fisk to San Diego State.

McGee is a 6-3, 195-pound two-time City Central League selection. Fisk, a 6-5, 200-pound linebacker from Arlington High School in Riverside, selected SDSU over New Mexico and Utah State, Arlington Coach Dan Arellano said.
