Sonny Aina, a 6-2, 275-lb freshman defensive lineman from Pacifica HS, redshirted the 2024 season with Portland State, preserving eligibility for a big 2025 push after the Vikings lose both starting DTs.[6] Coaches rave about his physicality as the class's first commit, a two-gap run-stuffer built for Big Sky battles, backed by HS accolades like two-time Defensive Lineman of the Year, All-Channel League, and All-Ventura County honors.[1][2] A scholar-athlete with relentless intensity, he's your plug-and-play interior disruptor if you need blue-collar toughness without the diva vibes—watch him dominate soon![1][6]
