“Jaden won multiple awards and holds multiple Northwood records while running our high powered, fast scoring offense under the watchful eye of then offensive coordinator Coach Dan Selway, (now with Capo Valley High School),” Nobles said.

“Jaden will be competing for the starting quarterback position this fall while earning his degree in business. Northwood’s coaching staff and teammates are very proud of Jaden’s decision and we all wish Jaden nothing but great success as he takes his next step towards his future. I for one will miss seeing Jaden out on our turf field preparing for our next opponent as he was a very special player.”

Piazza earned All-CIF Division 12 honors and was named Northwood’s 2019 co-offensive MVP. He was also first team All-PCL. In Division 12, Piazza was eighth in passing yards, fourth in yards/game, second in completed passes, tied for first in passing attempts and fourth in touchdown passes.
