Taft running back D.J. Morgan was officially selected to participate in the 2010 U.S. Army All-American Bowl game during a ceremony at school on Wednesday.

The USC-bound standout is considered one of the top rushers in the Southland, so his selection to the nation’s premiere showcase for senior football players was expected.
