"From the first practice to the last, Braiden McKenna was the true leader of Los Alamitos' offensive live. It was his job to help a young group in its first season of starting to develop with each game."
"McKenna led the way, playing center and helping guide a line that consistently opened lanes for running backs Lenny Ibarra and Kamden Tillis, both of whom reached 1,000 yards rushing during a 12-3 season. It was a key part for the Griffins winning the Southern Section Division 2 championship, their first title since 2002."
""He physically dominated the line of scrimmage," Fenton said. There was one opponent who said of McKenna: "You are crazy strong.""
Braiden McKenna served as the leader of Los Alamitos' offensive line from the first practice to the last. He played center and directed a young front that consistently opened lanes for running backs Lenny Ibarra and Kamden Tillis, both of whom surpassed 1,000 rushing yards during a 12-3 season. The Griffins captured the Southern Section Division 2 championship, their first title since 2002. The 6-foot-2, 290-pound senior was a three-year starter tasked with making calls up front, relying on intelligence, vision and instincts. Coach Ray Fenton graded McKenna at 93% and said, "He physically dominated the line of scrimmage." An opponent called him "You are crazy strong."
