Last time we saw Kenji Rocket, he was averaging 4.7 points and 2.0 assists per game for the 2005-06 VC men's basketball team.

The former basketball star found himself in the football fray today for the first time since his Pop Warner days. Vying for a place in the Pirates' secondary, Rocket lined up at free safety in today's scrimmage against Cal Lutheran and made a nice hit to break up a pass play.

"It was fun," said Rocket. "Searching for that physical contact... I'm just going from basketball defense to football defense.

"It's a good group of guys to be out here with."
