BEAVERTON, Ore. — For the second time in the last three years, an Alabama commit has been crowned Elite 11 MVP after 4-star Crimson Tide pledge Tua Tagovailoa dominated during seven-on-seven play at The Opening on Sunday.
The 6'1", 215-pounder from St. Louis High School in Honolulu ran away from the competition after tossing four touchdown passes during the first half of Team Vapor Speed's 38-20 victory over Fly Rush in the tournament championship game.
On a team with five other Tide commits, Tagovailoa—who was also named the MVP of the seven-on-seven tournament—shined the brightest on the biggest of stages.
