2021 Standouts Week 5: Part I

The 2020 Michigan high school football season was back in action throughout the weekend and it was another week filled with impressive performances. Here are some of the top performers from across the state in the 2021 class. <b>[player_tooltip player_id="29812" first="Blake" last="Bosma"] | WR | West Ottawa</b> Bosma was on this list a couple weeks ago, but his performance needs to be highlighted once again. The senior receiver tallied 12 catches for 179 yards and two touchdowns in a 43-35 loss to Hudsonville. He still holds just the two offers from Presbyterian and Valparaiso, but he is a player that more college programs need to be taking notice of. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="29684" first="D.J." last="Stepney"] | DB/RB | Dakota</strong> Stepney is a talented two-way playmaker for Dakota, but projects best at defensive back on the college level. The Central Michigan commit ran the ball 30 times for over 190 yards and three touchdowns, but also added an interception. The Chippewas are getting a really good one in Stepney. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="29644" first="Colin" last="Parachek"] | QB | Dexter</strong> Parachek balled out in a 70-38 win over Jackson and he continues to be one of the most underrated quarterbacks in the state. The 70 points were a school record, but Parachek didn’t stop there as he set more school records for touchdown passes and passing yards in a single game. He completed 23-of-34 passes for 501 yards and seven touchdowns on the night. The senior signal caller currently holds just one offer from Valparaiso, but he is a player deserving of many more opportunities on the college level.
