With temperatures hovering around 100 degrees, Biaggio Ali Walsh leaves Fertitta Field after another sweaty morning practice at national football power Bishop Gorman High School.
This is his Las Vegas team, his Las Vegas school.
Ali Walsh, a running back who was the Review-Journal’s state Male Athlete of the Year for 2015-16, moved from Chicago to Las Vegas when he was 7, and Southern Nevada has been his home since.
But the grandson of boxing legend Muhammad Ali will be moving into a new home, having chosen California over UNLV and other schools.
“I would like to get out and see new things,” Ali Walsh said before making his choice.
