Class 4A, District 4: Top Offensive Players

The incredible talent that Southeast Polk places on the field each week is that of a football factory. The Rams have quickly become must-see-TV each time they play. And that was never more evident than this season. However, several other teams from Class 4A, District 4 also provided bright spots. Here’s a look at some of the top offensive players from the district: <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="23947" first="Jaxon" last="Dailey"] - Southeast Polk (2022)</strong> The list of top quarterbacks in the state is a big one, but when you are talking about the best of the best, Southeast Polk’s Jason Dailey comes to the forefront. Dailey has been incredible this year, completing over 70 percent of his passes. He is selective when it comes to taking shots down the field and protective of the football. <em>And when he needs to, Dailey is more than quick enough to take off and pick up the first down. Combine an ability to make all the throws, change his arm angle and great speed, and it is quite obvious why coaches around the country are angling for Dailey’s services.</em> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="23983" first="Titus" last="Christiansen"] - Southeast Polk (2022)</strong> By this time next year, the amount of offers for [player_tooltip player_id="23983" first="Titus" last="Christiansen"] will be overwhelming. The Southeast Polk junior is as gifted of talent as there is in this state. Christiansen averages over seven yards per carry, has a knack for getting to the end zone and is also a very capable catcher of the ball out of the backfield. <em>When the 5-foot-10, 175-pound Christiansen gets free, he is uncatchable. Factor in all the skills he presents, and there will be nothing short of big-time offers coming in.</em> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="23831" first="Marcus" last="Morgan"] - Iowa City West (2021)</strong> If he decides on football, someone is getting a future starter on the gridiron in [player_tooltip player_id="23831" first="Marcus" last="Morgan"]. However, the Iowa City West senior is also a top-level baseball player, and of course, he could opt to do both. <em>Morgan is accurate and has one of the strongest arms in the state. He gets the ball down the field in a hurry and can put it through small openings in the defense with ease.</em> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="23886" first="Raphael" last="Hamilton"] - Iowa City High (2021)</strong> The University of Mary saw exactly what those who scout [player_tooltip player_id="23886" first="Raphael" last="Hamilton"] see: a strong-armed, experienced, smart quarterback ready to excel at the next level. The 6-foot-4, 232-pounder is a three-year varsity starter, two-year captain and owns a 4.0 grade point average. Hamilton is going to come in and compete straightaway for playing time after building his skills at Iowa City High. <em>Hamilton is strong enough to get away from defenders and can throw on the run with precision and placement. </em>
