St. John Bosco's Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa is SBLive's CIF Southern Section Defensive Player of the Year
SBLive's 2023 Defensive Player of the Year
LB - Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa, St. John Bosco, Sr.
There's no running from this linebacker.
Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa epitomizes the position in every sense: a tackling hound, a physical presence, and a leader.
The Notre Dame-bound linebacker stands 6-foot-3, 230 pounds, can sniff out the run and has the athleticism to disrupt the pass attack.
Viliamu-Asa led St. John Bosco with 114 tackles and had 13 tackles for loss in 13 games. He tallied 1.5 sacks, one interception, three pass deflections and helped deliver a Trinity League title when St. John Bosco defeated Mater Dei 28-0 on Oct. 13.
His defensive presence anchored a rushing defense that allowed Mater Dei to run for just 61 yards that night.
St. John Bosco's Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa is the SBLive 2023 Defensive Player of the Year.
