MaxPreps 2012 California Division IV All-State High School Football Team

Based on Central Catholic's performance in the CIF Division IV State Championship Bowl Game, a 66-7 win over Santa Fe Christian, any number of Raiders could be chosen for Division IV All-State MVP honors.

But we'll go with the running back tandem of Ray Lomas IV and Rey Vega. Together they gained nearly 4,000 yards of offense and scored 62 touchdowns in leading Central Catholic to a state championship.

The two Raiders were chosen by the Modesto Bee as the District Players of the Year, regardless of school size. The duo also excelled in the state championship game with Vega racking up 202 yards and four touchdowns and Lomas running for 183 yards and three scores.

Like the state championship game, the Raiders dominate the Division IV All-State Team. Vega and Lomas lead a group of seven Raiders honored.
