Jacob Sloan- WR, Mission Bay
Sloan is a dangerous playmaker and a top target out of the slot for Mission Bay QB Clash Osborn. He’s the current leading scorer in San Diego with 11 TDs from his WR position while also handling kicking duties. He’s a shifty athlete with the ability to create separation in his routes and elude tacklers in open space. Sloan’s playmaking ability and production this season have him positioned as one of the more underrated skill players in San Diego’s junior class.

Zack Marshall Zack Marshall 6'4" | 220 lbs | ATH Carlsbad | 2023 State CA – TE, Santa Fe Christian
Marshall is a highly-effective receiving target at TE. He possesses the athleticism to beat linebackers in man-coverage and can create space with underneath routes while split out wide. He has lengthy reach with strong hands and shows instincts finding soft spots in zone-coverage. Marshall has unique potential as a rare breed of receiving TE at the high school level with an advanced physical skillset for the position.

Connor Rath- RB, Poway
Rath has proven to be an explosive playmaker out of the backfield this season for Poway. He’s a physical downhill runner with good vision showing speed and elusiveness in open space. He shows quick burst and acceleration out of his cuts and runs with power behind his 6’3, 200 lb. frame. Rath has posted some impressive statistical performances this season including a 358-yard, 4 TD game against Vista in September.
It didn’t lead to a score, but @PowayFootball‘s Conner Rath (@conner_rath) had the best run of the night on Friday.
Spin move in the backfield, subtle cut to the near sideline to get through three defenders, and a monster stiff-arm.

Garrett Bass-Sulzipio- QB, La Jolla Country Day
Bass-Sulzipio is an underrated QB with raw physical upside at 6’4, 215 lbs. He’s shown athleticism moving outside the pocket making throws on the run and picking up yards with his legs. He has a strong, accurate arm and has shown ability to be patient in the pocket progressing through reads. He’s been a productive and efficient leader for the LJCD offense this season throwing for 25 TDs and 3 INTs through 7 games.
