After spending the holidays with his Fagasa family, Fautua Maiava Jr. headed back to the mainland last week Monday. Fau is a 2017 Samoana HS graduate who was the first Samoan football player to be recruited directly from American Samoa by Colorado Mesa University, an NCAA Division II school. The son of Fautua Sr. and Florence Tua-Maiava, Fau is pictured with his siblings and his grandmother, Faimalie Tua. [photo: BC]
