Sateki Reno Mahe, Jr. (born June 3, 1980) is a retired American football running back who played five seasons for the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League (NFL). Mahe played college football for Brigham Young University (BYU), and was signed by the Philadelphia Eagles as an undrafted free agent in 2003.
Sateki Reno Mahe was born June 3, 1980, in Los Angeles to Sateki Reno Mahe Sr. and his wife, Eva, both from the island nation of Tonga. One of eight children, Mahe moved with his family numerous times before settling in at Brighton High School in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Mahe played football at Brighton, where he was named All-State twice. As a senior, he led his team to a 10-1 record and was chosen as the Gatorade Utah Player of the Year. He also earned team MVP, All-Region, and region MVP honors in his final high school season. He lettered in football three times, and in basketball two times.
A Mormon, Mahe put his mission on hold after high school in order to concentrate on football. In 2009, he told an interviewer, "I really got caught up in the football world, and decided to play football. To this day, I still regret not going on my mission." The University of Utah offered him a chance to play defense; Brigham Young University offered him a chance to play offense. Though he was a fan of the Utes because his elder brother went to the U of U, he chose BYU for the opportunity to play offense. During his freshman season at BYU, fans knew him as Junior Mahe.
Mahe attended Brigham Young University, where he played for the BYU Cougars football team. As a true freshman in 1998, he had a significant role on the BYU Cougars football team. He served as backup to star running back Ronney Jenkins. Mahe rushed for 481 yards and scored 7 touchdowns during the season. He scored a touchdown in his first-ever college football game, a 38-31 BYU loss against Alabama in Tuscaloosa.
