Allen Park — Sunday’s game will take DeShawn Shead back to the Palmdale/Highland days.
The Antelope Valley high school rivalry game north of Los Angeles was where he played most of his middle school teammates who attended Palmdale while he went to Highland.
“That was our rivals, so it was always a battle but it was fun just to see a lot of the people I grew up with, a lot of the people I played Pop Warner with,” Shead said of matching up against players like Davon House, now a cornerback with Green Bay.
