Maybe it's because he's secluded out near the slews of Castroville, on a campus that is hidden in the hills.
Because we don't often here the name Jordan Graves when it comes to elite athletes in the county.
But we should.
The 6-foot-2 senior isn't just a sharpshooting three-time all-league guard on the Condors basketball team that has started since his freshmen year.
Graves has become an efficient quarterback this fall for the football team, accounting for six of the teams first nine touchdowns.
He was also a starter on the baseball team last year.
In an era where high school athletes feel they need to focus on one sport, Graves has excelled in three for three years.
True, Graves may be playing out of position for North County as a quarterback. Truth be told, he's a college caliber receiver if he wanted to pursue football.
But basketball -- for now -- is his passion.
And playing quarterback is a big reason the Condors have won their last two games, reversing an 0-4 non-league season by being undefeated in the Pacific Division.
You want your best athlete touching the ball.
