Two El Toro football players who made the Chargers one of the county’s best offensive teams, have orally committed to colleges, Coach Mike Milner said Wednesday.

Offensive tackle Jim Adams (6-5, 275), a Times all-county offensive lineman, has said he will attend Oregon next year.

Michael Smith (5-11, 165), a wide receiver, who caught more than 100 passes the past three seasons, has chosen Montana. Smith caught 27 passes for 491 yards and four touchdowns last season, and 33 for 446 yards as a junior. A year earlier, at Mission Viejo, Smith caught 45 passes for 638 yards.
