Despite missing two games last year, Jones rushed for over 1,200 yards for Monterey, including a career high 310 yards against North Salinas, and 258 in a playoff loss to St. Ignatius.
Called up as a freshman for the postseason in 2013, the tailback could see his number called more this fall as a receiver to take advantage of his speed in the open field.
John Devine has been writing about high school sports in Monterey County since, well, practically since he was an athlete at King City in the days just after leather helmets. In PrepNation, John has even more in-depth analysis of the latest results and news he's brought to you in The Herald and in his weekly videos.

Will be interesting to see what goes on with the Monterey coaching staff. I wonder if Carter Aldrete will even play..Akili Jones has a shot at being a D1 player. IDK if it will happen straight out of High school but he has the talent to play at the next level.
