Playing at Santa Ana (California) Mater Dei, Brandon Baker has faced some of the stiffest high school competition in the country. So, it speaks volumes that he’s been dominant against the opposition and racked up honor after honor. Baker first emerged as a sophomore, earning Max Preps Sophomore All-America honors. Baker then took his game to another level in 2022, earning first-team all-county honors from the Orange County Register and Max Preps second-team All-America recognition. Baker credits legendary coach and recently retired Bruce Rollinson for a lot of his development. “He’s shown me that discipline is the major key to success,” Baker told USA Today. “He’s shown that it’s a strict process to get to the top. It’s helped me be able to live my childhood dream of playing football at the highest levels.”
