Three New Hampshire players are among the athletes who have been nominated for consideration to play in the 10th U.S. Army All-American Bowl, an all-star football game that features some of the best high school talent in the country.
Manchester Central running back Mike Cavanaugh, Pinkerton Academy defensive back Eric Guinto and Pinkerton Academy offensive lineman Chris Trieb are the New Hampshire players nominated for next year's game, which will be played Jan. 9 (1 p.m.) in San Antonio's Alamodome. NBC will televise the game live.
Cavanaugh, Guinto and Trieb were all Division I First Team All-State selections last season.
Adrian Peterson, Reggie Bush, Vince Young, Tim Tebow and Terrelle Pryor are among the current college and NFL players who participated in the All-American Bowl. Eight players who were selected in the first round of April's NFL draft played in the All-American Bowl.
Of the 400 nominees, 90 players will be chosen to play in next year's game. The contest features an East vs. West format.
