Happy to announce Prep Redzone Pennsylvania’s first-ever 1st & 2nd All-Camp teams! In this piece, we will be releasing our 1st & 2nd team selections amongst offensive players. A ton of talent was on display, making these selections very very tough. Enough players balled out to make a potential 3rd-Team.
We again would like to thank everyone who competed! This list is a combined evaluation from myself and the coaches involved, while also incorporating testing scores.
<span style="font-size: 14pt;"><em><strong>Quarterbacks </strong></em></span>
1st - Kerry Burns Jr.
1st - [player_tooltip player_id="149985" first="Carter" last="Speyerer"]
These two kept their head down, received all of the coaching, and went to work. No games. Burns is a player I’m excited to watch from here on out. I made my rounds from coach to coach at the event, asking for their standouts at the QB position, Burns was the most frequent response. His film is riddled with tight-window throws and excellent footwork.
Happy to see Carter pass the way he did, seamless, like he’s been there before. That’s because he has. It’s hard to recruit PA QB’s and not find Carter somewhere in your research. His work ethic stands tall.

2nd - [player_tooltip player_id="243272" first="Trenton" last="Carter"]
2nd - Anthony Torres Jr.
Really tough to figure out who would make this second team. I couldn’t go wrong, so many kids stood out. A big deciding factor to add Torres Jr. was how well he tested across the board. He, like Speyerer is a relentless worker.

1st - Andre Reames
1st - [player_tooltip player_id="280231" first="Jayden" last="Johnson"]
2nd - [player_tooltip player_id="248226" first="Ethan" last="Shine"]
2nd - [player_tooltip player_id="270361" first="Roger" last="Romany Walker"] Jr.
[player_tooltip player_id="270361" first="Roger" last="Romany Walker"], although he wasn’t named as a "Top Performer" certainly showed he should have. The kid tested well, went through individuals just as good as anyone else, and gave maximum effort every time my eyes were on him. He’s a senior deserving of much more attention. 4.15 GPA. How this kid fell through the cracks is beyond me. He’s got my focus.

<span style="font-size: 14pt;"><em><strong>Wide Receivers </strong></em></span>
1st - DaQuan McCraw
1st - [player_tooltip player_id="263050" first="Jareel" last="Calhoun"]
1st - [player_tooltip player_id="259542" first="Durrell" last="Ceasar"]
1st - [player_tooltip player_id="255084" first="Caleb" last="Newsome"]
2nd - [player_tooltip player_id="143191" first="Zion" last="Allen"]
2nd - Jason Lindsay
2nd - [player_tooltip player_id="145459" first="Alijah" last="Turner"]
[player_tooltip player_id="143191" first="Zion" last="Allen"]’s testing numbers were, let’s just say, impressive. Won’t announce that yet but I’ve been following the kid for some time and am happy to see him come out and perform to the best of his abilities.
Figuring out the last two wideouts was a tough one. Leaving out [player_tooltip player_id="177710" first="Jah" last="Jah Boyd"] and Samuel Smalls hurt. Lindsay and [player_tooltip player_id="145459" first="Alijah" last="Turner"] were winning reps consistently as well as testing above their peers.

<span style="font-size: 14pt;"><em><strong>Offensive Lineman</strong></em></span>
1st - [player_tooltip player_id="248764" first="Declan" last="Aikens"]
1st - [player_tooltip player_id="255048" first="Justin" last="Kutcher"]
1st - [player_tooltip player_id="268100" first="Soren" last="Stoltzfus"]
2nd - Jason Baldwin
2nd - [player_tooltip player_id="255053" first="Lukas" last="Donahue"]
2nd - Jawaad Hanton
Fully believe after digesting more clips from the event, that Jawaad Hanton could have easily been a top performer as well. He is in my book. Tough as nails & incredible lower body strength to absorb blows high.
