He has great vision when getting downhill and finishing plays and also is great at stuffing the run up the middle. He has great ball skills in pass coverage and is underrated in his coverage skills.

He has great ball skills and can run down any plays stretching sideline to sideline. He is a great tackler and can make plays on the field using his athleticism and knowledge from playing quarterback his freshman and sophomore year. Look for Cam to have a big year and command the Morgantown defense and solidify his role on that defense as a leader. &nbsp; <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="58759" first="Braxton" last="Todd"]:</strong> 6’0 180 Martinsburg High School 2022 LB <strong>Hudl:</strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/11956369/Braxton-Todd"> https://www.hudl.com/profile/11956369/Braxton-Todd</a> One of the most underrated players in the state Braxton is a great sideline to sideline backer. He has great speed and agility  and doesnt miss many tackles. He’s athletic and makes big hits along with filling hole and running plays down. His sophomore year was his growing year but he’s starting to put the state on notice with his play in his junior year and will look to have a major impact and role on a young Martinsburg team. &nbsp; <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="58683" first="Tyrone" last="Washington"]:</strong> 6’1 185 Hurricane High School 2021 LB <strong>Hudl:</strong> <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/9735666/Tyrone-Washington">https://www.hudl.com/profile/9735666/Tyrone-Washington</a> Tyrone is a great athlete and make many plays playing line backer. He shows good talking and the ability to run down rushers looking to stretch the field. He shows great patience but also knows when to get downhill and has a knack for making plays at the line backer position. He has great technique and doesn’t over run plays and get washed out of a play. Look for Tyrone to have a big senior year and provide some confidence for Hurricane and their defense. &nbsp; <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="58686" first="Caden" last="Biser"]:</strong> 6’2 205 Morgantown High School 2021 LB <strong>Hudl:</strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/9615642/Caden-Biser"> https://www.hudl.com/profile/9615642/Caden-Biser</a> Caden is a great line backer and shows it with his ability to get downhill and make plays. He consistently sheds off blocks and makes plays at the line of scrimmage and is creating one of the best linebacker duos with himself and [player_tooltip player_id="58670" first="Cam" last="Rice"] at the backer positions. Look for Caden to step up and help this Morgantown team get confidence as well and provide another voice on that defense and anchor his squad. &nbsp; &nbsp;
