Meet the USA TODAY Sports West Region preseason ALL-USA high school football team

From the Pacific coast to the Hoover Dam and the mountains ranges north to south, the West Region is producing talent with eyes on championships and acclaim in the coming high school football season.

USA TODAY Sports is proud to release its preseason West Region All-American team, highlighting 33 players across First, Second and Third Team offense and defense. These players were selected from a number of factors, including previous season stats and performances, recruiting rankings, quality of schedule and projections for how they will improve throughout the year.

Well-represented are players from Super 25 teams, including California powerhouses like Centennial, Mater Dei and St. John Bosco, Arizona teams like Basha, Hamilton and Chandler, and others like Bishop Gorman. These players will help their teams compete for local, state and national glory.

Here are the rankings for the West region, made up of Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. Names are listed in alphabetical order within each position.
