Local-led North wins all-star game
Thanks to key contributions from two local players, the North edged the South 15-14 in Saturday’s 47th annual Charlie Wedemeyer High School All-Star Game at Los Gatos High. Mountain View High quarterback Jackson Steffen threw a touchdown pass and later ran for a TD, while St. Francis High linebacker Camilo Arquette scored on a safety. Shelley Smith, who retired as Mountain View’s coach last month, guided the North squad.
