Thanks to rapper Snoop Dogg, Los Angeles’ Crenshaw High School is one of California’s leading high school football teams. Sporting an undefeated record, Crenshaw High School is just one win away from clenching the city’s title.
A number of the players on Crenshaw’s football team are the first graduates of Snoop’s The Snoop Youth Football League.
“I celebrate what he’s doing—he’s probably saved thousands of kids—and he doesn’t have to do that,” Crenshaw High School’s Coach Robert Garrett told the Wall Street Journal. “I may not want to hang out with him, but he’s putting his money where his mouth is.”
Crenshaw High School boasts some of the fastest players in California and several of its football players have been recruited by schools like University of Miami and USC.
If Crenshaw High School can manage a win on Saturday, December 12 they’ll become one step closer to playing in the California state-championship bowl game.
