Cal High Student Named 'Player of the Week' by San Francisco 49ers

SAN RAMON, CA — California High School varsity football player Cameron Norfleet was recently named “Player of the Week” by the San Francisco 49ers.

Norfleet, a senior who also maintains a 3.8 grade point average, earned the prestigious award after the Grizzlies beat the Amador Valley Dons earlier this month.

"It is a great honor for Cam to be recognized by the 49ers as the Player of the Week,” California High School Principal Sarah Cranford said. “California High School is so proud of him and his performance in the game against Amador Valley. He is a leader on the team and takes his role as captain very seriously. Cam is so deserving of this recognition for his excellence on and off the field.”

The 49ers Foundation will present Cal High with a $500 grant to be used for their football program. Norfleet will recognized at an upcoming 49ers game and will attend a 49ers practice, according to the 49ers.
