John Harrison

SCHOOL: Hart

SPORT: Football

YEAR: Senior

SEASON AT A GLANCE: A returning All-Foothill League lineman, Harrison (6 feet, 225 pounds) has lived up to expectations. He has 84 tackles--44 unassisted--and leads the team with 16 sacks. As Hart’s inexperienced offense struggled in the first five games, the defense led by Harrison carried the load. He plays fullback in short-yardage situations and has 17 touchdowns in 57 carries.

WEEK AT A GLANCE: Harrison shined in a 28-6 Southern Section Division III quarterfinal victory over Palmdale. Moving to outside linbacker, he had 10 tackles, two sacks and four other tackles for losses. He helped limit the run-oriented Falcons to 18 rushing yards. Harrison scored two touchdowns on a run and a reception.
