Here is Adam Munsterteiger's article on Luke and the Lightning

There were rumors earlier this summer that Luke Bublitz had suffered an injury that would sideline him for 2008 football season.The 6-foot-3, 195-pound gunslinger did get hurt. But it won't prevent him from leading the Broomfield (Colo.) Legacy offense this fall."Luke had a slightly torn labarum," explained Legacy head coach Wayne Voorhees. "But he is back throwing the ball around. He will be back. So we are excited about that. He is going to be a catalyst for us."Luke is real sharp. He is book smart and football smart. He makes good decisions. He is also a team leader. He has got a charismatic attitude and he gets our guys going. Physically, he is a big, tall kid that has a cannon. He is one of the best kids we've ever coached here."Bublitz helped Legacy to nine wins in 2007. The Lightening will have even higher expectations going into this season.Bublitz also excels in baseball. He plays both pitcher and third base."I think that Luke likes baseball maybe a little more," Voorhees said when asked which sport he thinks Bublitz will play after high school. "But I sat him down with [former CU quarterback and former minor league baseball player] Joel Klatt. Joel thinks he is better in football. So I think he is going to have some opportunities to play football in college, if he wants them."Representing Colorado in 'The Big Easy'Earlier this month, Wayne Voorhees coached a group of Colorado prepsters in the NFL HSPD National 7-on-7 tournament held in New Orleans.The team consisted of six players from Bear Creek, five from Legacy and one from Fort Lupton. They lost their first two games but bounced back by winning seven in a row before bowing out in the semifinals."Zach Thenell, from Bear Creek, was our quarterback and he did real well," said Voorhees. "He makes really good decisions. I was really impressed with him."Another Bear Creek kid on our team was Tommy Flanagan. He was really impressive. A lot of the other teams and the NFL people there were talking about his athleticism. He did a great job."Travis Sears and Beau Trigsted, two Legacy receivers, also showed well at the tournament."Those two are really coming into their own this summer," Voorhees said. "Travis is really starting to fill out. He is now 6-foot-5, 190-pounds. He is just a tough kid who goes up and gets passes."
