Standout receiver Shane Rosenthal of Newbury Park commits to UCLA
Shane Rosenthal, the record-setting receiver at Newbury Park High, had waited months to see if college recruiters might finally notice his skills besides teams in the Ivy League. UCLA coach DeShaun Foster made a visit to Newbury Park last week, brought Rosenthal in for a recruiting visit, offered him a scholarship and Rosenthal changed his commitment from Princeton to UCLA on Tuesday. Rosenthal had staggering statistics in high school, with career numbers of 324 receptions for 5,197 yards and 62 touchdowns. He also had 24 interceptions. Newbury Park won the Southern Section Division 2 championship this season. In this week's episode of 'Friday Night Live,' @latsondheimer + @RandyRosenbloom talk to Newbury Park wide receiver Shane Rosenthal about his record-setting time with the Panthers and what he's looking forward to next year when he attends Princeton. — L.A. Times Sports (@latimessports) December 13, 2024 Rosenthal and standout junior quarterback Brady Smigiel have been teammates and best friends for years, so Rosenthal's decision certainly can't hurt UCLA's chances in recruiting Smigiel, who recently withdrew his commitment to Florida State and listed UCLA as among the schools he's now looking at. "They did their research and everything points toward a fit for them. My hats off to them," said Newbury Park coach Joe Smigiel, who went on Rosenthal's recruiting visit. Sign up for the L.A.
