Salpointe Catholic senior-to-be Matteo Mele, an offensive lineman of note, last week visited the Oregon Ducks’ campus. He has also been offered a scholarship by Arizona. The Wildcats have increased their pursuit of many of the West’s leading Polynesian football prospects, offering scholarships to Salt Lake City guard Sione Angilau, SLC defensive end Tennessee Pututau and SLC tackle Paul Maile. Unfortunately, Angilau has also been offered by Alabama and Texas, and Pututau, who has three cousins on the Utah roster, has been offered by ASU, Tennessee and Boise State. Â
