At the Rich Rodriguez 7-on-7 passing league championships last weekend at Arizona Stadium, Marana High School knocked off big-school power Chandler High School 38-20 to win the title. It’s a reflection on the turn-around coach Andy Litten has directed in Marana, which went 9-3 a year ago, and an indication of more to come. Junior-to-be quarterback Trenton Bourguet threw 44 touchdown passes and only had two interceptions during the two-day tournament; one national recruiting service named him the top 7-on-7 quarterback in the country. Marana receivers Jesus ValenzuelaDiego Miranda and Tariq Jordan were Bourguet’s key receivers in a 38-0 victory over rival Mountain View in the semifinals.
