Recruiting Roundup: Husky Signees & Targets Shine at the Polynesian Bowl & Some New Offers Go Out

Last night several Husky signees and targets participated in the Polynesian Bowl and several of them made some noise during the game.

Four-star inside linebacker Daniel Heimuli from Menlo Atherton HS, CA had six tackles and a sack on his way to winning defensive MVP. Heimuli is scheduled to visit UW next weekend and has been rumored to be a Husky lean for a while but has visited Oregon, and may visit Alabama and UCLA as well.

Four-star defensive end and Husky signee Laiata Latu out of Jesuit HS, CA also had six tackles to tie Heimuli and inside linebacker and Husky signee Alphonso Tuputala from Federal Way HS, WA.

Defensive tackle and Husky signee Noa Ngalu from Menlo Atherton HS, CA also had a good game, showing his quickness and being disruptive all game.

On the offensive end, Husky wide receiver target Puka Nacua from Orem HS, UT caught a touchdown pass and ended the night with six catches and 93 yards, ending up as the offensive MVP. Nacua is scheduled to visit UW as well and will join with Heimuli next weekend on Montlake.

Overall it was a good showing for Husky targets and signees across the board.
