While helping Pusch Ridge to the state football championship in 2015, receiver Edwin Lovett was a standout; he caught passes for 1,051 yards and 14 touchdowns the last two seasons. The son of former UA receiver Lamar Lovett was offered a scholarship by academic powerhouse Colorado School of Mines on an official visit to Golden, Colorado, last week. The Orediggers were 10-3 last year, reaching the second round of the NCAA Division II playoffs. It is the school of former Tucson High and Pima College all-star Murphy Gershman, who is averaging 15 minutes and 4.6 points per game for Colorado School of Mines’ 15-3 basketball team.
