Salpointe head coach Dennis Bene calls out to his players from the sideline during the third quarter of the Salpointe Catholic vs. Sierra Vista Buena high school football game on Aug. 22, 2014.

As Salpointe Catholic extended its football winning streak to 18 on Friday, it again became apparent how coachΒ Dennis BeneΒ keeps building. In the last two games, sophomore receiver/defensive backΒ D.J. HintonΒ has had a 104-yard receiving game, intercepted a pass and returned a kickoff 96 yards. And junior nose guardΒ Justin HoltΒ has become a dominant player up front. Holt, who has received a scholarship offer from Arizona, is now drawing attention from Michigan State, Nebraska, Wisconsin and Oregon.
