Colby Garvin, TE/WR, Queen Creek HS: Arizona State University
Garvin has a solid frame at 6’6″ 210lbs with strong hands to haul in contested catches. He was too big, athletic, and physical for DB’s to man up on him, making him a big mismatch throughout the season. He possesses solid length with a large catch radius and holds massive potential going forward.
Mo Sarnowski Mo Sarnowski 6'2" | 225 lbs | LB Hamilton | 2021 State AZ , LB, Hamilton HS: Northern Arizona University
Sarnowski is a very tough kid with a high football IQ at LB. He does a great job at shedding blocks quickly to make plays, and can also be an effective pass rusher. He did a great job in the playoffs against Salpointe Catholic to shoot through gaps and use his strength and power to blow up plays or get into the backfield.
Ammon Allen Ammon Allen 6'2" | 205 lbs | DB Highland | 2021 State AZ , ATH, Highland HS: University of Arizona
Allen has excellent range and closes ground very well. Solid closing speed with a good striking ability as a tackler and is very strong at the POA. He’s a complete DB all across the board. He holds impressive athleticism with position versatility, and is believed to play the “viper” position at UofA. Highly touted kid with massive potential.
CJ Flores, DB, Cienega HS: Northern Arizona University
Flores will bring excellent athleticism all across the board to NAU. He sheds blocks well and closes nicely on ball carriers. He shows goo short area quickness and is a fly around player. He was also a solid RB at Cienega, showing a good initial burst through the hole with a low pad level.
PJ London PJ London 6'3" | 205 lbs | QB Blue Ridge | 2021 State AZ , QB/ATH, Blue Ridge HS: Northern Arizona University
London is a solid all around athlete that excelled at QB for Blue Ridge. He moves around well in the pocket and has the ability to hit all 3 levels of throws with velocity or touch. Very good arm strength overall and a legit gunslinger. He also played DB and does a great job with play recognition with good reaction.
