February 7 was National Signing Day, where football players sign their letter of intent to play at a college where they’ve been recruited.
Such was the case for six area football players, including three from Barstow High School.
Two other local high school football players — Oak Hills’ Paki Finau and Adelanto’s Shakir Collins — signed letters on the early signing day back in December.

Barstow’s Samuelu Tofaeono recently signed a National Letter of Intent to continue playing football at Black Hills State University.
My decision to attend Black Hills State University: “What led me to signing to Black Hills St. was the environment, players, coaches and the culture. It felt like home. The coaches are really big on ‘we/me’ meaning you are a player person over a selfish person. They are a family-oriented team which I liked because my teammates are like my brothers and we held each other to that standard every year.
Playing at Barstow: “I cherish my years spent playing football not only because it was a passion of mine but also because of the profound bonds formed with my coaches and teammates. They became more than just fellow players. They were like brothers, a second family to me. Together, we shared victories, defeats and countless memories both on and off the field. Through the highs and lows, their support and camaraderie made every moment unforgettable, shaping not just my athletic experience but also my character and sense of belonging. Football wasn’t just a game. It was a source of joy, growth and lifelong relationships that I will always hold dear.”
