James Harris Safety 6-1 208 Roseville, Calif. Oakmont High School |
The 2002 honorable mention all-state choice found it challenging to duplicate his junior year numbers as a senior, partially due to injuries which interrupted three of his last four games of his final prep campaign. The standout defensive back and wide receiver completed 2003 as his team’s second-leading receiver, catching 13 passes for 423 yards and four touchdowns for a team which averaged in excess of 200 yards per game rushing. Also averaged 26.0 yards on nine punt returns while recording two interceptions and returning one kickoff for a score. Credited with four receptions for 186 yards and three TDs vs. El Dorado High School for a team which finished with a 7-4 record following a loss in the opening round of the Sac-Joaquin Section playoffs. Paced the Pioneer League and the Sacramento area with 1,350 yards receiving (122.7-yard avg.) and a league-leading 19 touchdowns as a junior. Also accumulated 2,000 all-purpose yards to lead the Vikings to a 2002 record of 9-3.
