If you take in a Mira Mesa High football game and want to check out the Marauders’ most dynamic player, senior Makei Thompson, there’s one place you should not look: the bench.
Thompson never sits. He’s a starting running back, starting cornerback, returns punts and kickoffs, plays on the kickoff team and even holds on PATs and field goals. The only time he’s guaranteed a blow is when the Marauders punt.
“He is an absolute, shut-down corner,” said defensive coordinator Phil Lomax. “I can put him on anybody in the county and he can absolutely lock him down.” Thompson — who is not related to former Mira Mesa coach Chris Thompson, who died early last season — has dialed long distance on some of his nine TDs, including scoring runs of 70, 83 and 90 yards.
Recalled Gardinera, “He looks at me, points to me, smiles and says, ’You know if the tip of my toe wasn’t , I was out of here.’ He knew it and I knew it was true. He would have been off to the races. He’s a good kid.” One thing the Marauders do is take care of their bodies, which helps Thompson carry a heavy load. He credits his durability to multiple factors.
