6. Glyndon Bolasky, RB/DB, 2006

Bolaski rushed for a combined 3,323 yards and 42 touchdowns in his final two years with Sabino and was named Arizona's Gatorade Player of the Year as a senior in 2005. He was also named the Arizona Daily Star Player of the Year that year when he rushed for 1,711 yards and 25 touchdowns, including 415 yards and six scores to help the Sabercats reach the 4A state finals. Bolasky went on to join the Arizona Wildcats — where he was seen as a potential two-way star — but a knee injury ultimately ended his career.

2. Brooks Reed, FB/DE/LB, 2006

Reed is rare in the sense that he's shined in high school, in college and then in the NFL. As a senior as Sabino, Reed received first-team All-Southern Arizona honors as a defensive lineman after he finished with 38 tackles and three sacks. The then-6-foot 2-inch, 220-pounder also made an impact offensively, combining for 520 rushing and receiving yards and six touchdowns while clearing way for Arizona Gatorade Player of the Year Glyndon Bolasky and helping the Sabercats reach the state finals. That was only the beginning, however. Reed was an All-Pac 10 defensive end with the Wildcats as a senior in 2010, the same year his brother Lucas, who also went to Sabino, received All-Mountain West honors as a sophomore at New Mexico. Brooks, who had 87 tackles and 15 sacks in his career at the UA, went on to be selected 42nd overall by the Houston Texans in the 2011 NFL Draft. He has since started in 21 games, registering 72 total tackles and 8½ sacks.
