Running back Keivarae Russell (Everett, Wash./Mariner) has narrowed his college choices to two and will make his decision next week.
Russell, the No. 5 player in the state and No. 25 back in the nation, took official visits to Notre Dame, Cal and Washington and also was offered scholarships by Arizona, Arizona State, Boise State, Colorado, Oregon State, Stanford, UCLA and USC among others.
“I’m down to Washington and Notre Dame,” Russell said. “Cal was cool too, and I had a good visit, but I like my opportunity to play early better at these two schools, and I have a better relationship with the coaching staffs at those two schools, as well.
