Fifita is a 5-11, 195, Freshman quarterback from Kolomotu'a, Tonga, and Servite HS. He was an early signee with Arizona and quickly became one of our best recruiters helping to bring in several of his teammates as well as other California players. Last year he threw for 2,974 yards and 34 TDs while rushing for another 685 yards and 22 TDs. The kid is a winner, a leader, a talent, and Arizona probably only landed him because he was too short for other schools. He will likely be our backup QB and a future starter.
