Rory Heltsley Rory Heltsley 6'3" | 195 lbs | WR Gibson Southern | 2022 State IN | 6’4 190lbs | WR | Gibson Southern | @RoryHeltsley
Rory is a standout performer anytime he takes the field. Bluntly said. Heltsley takes the average route and turns it into something remarkable time & time again. Surely, it helps to have Brady Allen Brady Allen 6'5" | 200 lbs | QB Gibson Southern | 2022 State IN , GibSo’s standout QB who has verbally committed to Purdue at the helm, but Heltsley continues to prove he has what it takes to play at the next level, already carrying an offer from Air Force & Brown. His size, in addition to his wingspan, provides the ability to ensure very few throws are out of contention for him. Be expecting many more offers to start falling into his lap as his farewell high school season begins this fall.
Pagerick Wade | 6’0 163lbs | WR | Castle | @pagerick_wade
A recent transfer to Castle pictured above, Class of 2023 Pagerick Wade will be a huge target for Castle, who are looking to follow up their Regional Championship last season. Wade brings a swagger to the position that few can show while also managing to be a high talent route-runner. Tight corner cuts & elusiveness on the field will make him a tough man to keep up with downfield, especially if a play has time to develop. I foresee Wade having a big year with a lot of development, he is one to certainly keep an eye on.
Timothy Dixon | 5’11 265lbs | OL | Evansville North | @TimothyDixon_75
A real standout at recent camps has been Dixon, as a Class of 2024 athlete, it can be easy to get lost in the shuffle against the older players, Dixon has no such issue. Resembling what I would deem a violent boar, he has a ferocity I haven’t seen matched by many at his level. With already well-rounded footwork and one mean OL punch, he will be an immense blocking force at the collegiate level in a few years, I expect this hidden gem to garner a lot of attention very soon.
Hurley Esters | 6’2 240lbs | DE/DT | Bosse | @estersii
Esters has highly efficient hands and placement. With a variety of moves in his arsenal, it will be a tall order to keep Esters out of your backfield as he continues to progress. There are few linemen in the SWI area that will be able to keep up with Esters all game, so he is a player to be wary of when game-planning. Though no offers yet, I see Hurley making waves at the higher level and losing this sleeper status this upcoming season.
