Projection
Power 4 StarterUtu starts at left tackle for Orange Lutheran (Calif.) and had a strong sophomore year. He missed some time early on with a meniscus injury but showed no ill affects once he hit the field. He’s all of 6-4, 290 pounds and is equally adept as a run blocker or pass protector. He shows very good feet and is a plus athlete who doubles as one of the areas top volleyball players. He’s a dominant run blocker as well who gets a strong push, is physical at the point of attack and is a finisher. He can get the second level and has all the physical tools to play for any school in the country. He’s currently rated a top 50 player in the ’26 Top247 and played like this season.
H.S. Athletic Background
Started all season as a freshman in one of the toughest leagues (Trinity) in the state, volleyball background and plays for one of the top club teams in his age group.
