Class of 2021: Mill Valley

The 2019 season was awesome to say the least for the Mill Valley Jaguars. They started out 1-3 but won the next 9 games en route to a 5A state championship. It was their 3rd state championship since 2015. The 2020 season looks very promising as well as they have six seniors ranked in the Kansas top 200 for the class of 2021 with all of them in the top 95. Here is a look at their top seniors. Ethan Kremer (21) DT, LG. 6’1 265 40-4.91. Plays as a 3T. Shows great burst off the ball. Imposes his will against larger OL. Good instincts enable him to take the correct angle to the ball carrier and delivers a heavy hit on RB and QB. As an OG, shows good quickness as he pulls on power and trap plays and is strong enough to drive defenders off the ball with good tenacity as he finishes blocks to the ground.
