He displays excellent balance and is slippery in tight spaces. He shows a nice initial burst and accelerates through opening lanes well. He can catch the ball out of the backfield and get upfield, and holds a high ceiling. He sizes up at 5’8" 180 as a freshman and looks like a promising young prospect given his athleticism. <strong>Fabian Pacheco</strong>, <em>LB, Highland HS</em> Pacheco led all freshman in tackles with 41 total tackles.
