Lowe names top five

Next year is shaping up to be a pretty solid year for linemen in Arizona and another to watch closely will be Peoria (Ariz.) Centennial's Jordon Lowe.

At 6-5, 300 pounds, Lowe is a big, strong lineman who just manhandles opposing defensive players at the high school level. As a junior, Lowe earned first team all-region and third team all-state honors and has the size and strength to be a prototype guard at the next level.

On the recruiting front, Lowe is hearing from Illinois, Colorado, Washington, Southern Miss, Arizona State, Arizona, Kansas, Wisconsin, Notre Dame, Oregon, Wyoming, Northwestern, Stanford and Ohio State.

“I grew up a Notre Dame fan, however, I’m leaning toward staying closer to home,”Lowe said. “My favorite school is ASU followed by University of Arizona, Oregon, Ohio State and Notre Dame. Right now staying close to home is a priority, but I’m going to keep my options open. Who knows what will happen down the road. I want to major in Business, so that will also be something I look into when deciding what school I’ll be attending.”

Academically, Lowe, is carrying a 2.5 GPA and will take the SAT later in the year. Lowe will attend the Nike camp at Stanford as well as Cal's team camp over the summer.
