Will it be the Los Angeles Rams<\/a> or the Seattle Seahawks<\/a> heading to Super Bowl LX on February 9? The NFC West rivals will battle for the third time this season in the NFC Championship game at 6:30 PM ET on FOX. It will be the third time this season that the two have battled. The Rams won the first game 21-19 on November 16. The Seahawks won 38-37 in overtime on their home turf on December 18.<\/p>\n

As High School Football America has done throughout the NFL Playoffs<\/a>, we\u2019re looking at each team\u2019s roster to see where every player played in high school. In all 31 different states will be represented in Seattle, plus one player from Australia.<\/p>\n

These two west coast teams will have 13 former California high school football players on their rosters \u2014 8 on the LA roster and five on the Seahawks. That\u2019s the most of any state. Texas has the second most former scholastic players with 11. Florida has 10 former high schoolers in the game.<\/p>\n

DeMatha (Maryland) and Miami Northwestern (Florida) each have two alumni in the game. Both schools were highly-ranked in the final 2025 High School Football America 300 national rankings<\/a>, powered by NFL Play Football. DeMatha was No. 9 in the nation. Northwestern finished No. 20.<\/p>\n

The Rams have former Northwestern wide receiver Tutu Atwell and cornerback Kamren Kinchens. DeMatha has Rams cornerback Josh Wallace and Seahawks CB Olusegun Oluwatimi.<\/p>\n

Below are the rosters for both.<\/p>\n
