The 2024 class of prospects is a strong class for Northern and Central Minnesota. There are some top tier talents across the board. Today we’re going to take a peek at some of my favorites so far. [player_tooltip player_id="242433" first="Mason" last="Carrier"] - LB - Detroit Lakes High School Carrier is an impressive prospect, whose highlight tape is littered with big hits. The 6’2" sophomore isn’t afraid of contact and routinely shows his speed and athleticism when tracking down running backs in the open field. The sky is the limit for this LB and it will be exciting to see his recruitment take off in the next year. [player_tooltip player_id="241909" first="Hudson" last="Hackel"] - LB - Perham High School Hackel is an athletic LB who shows the ability to play sideline to sideline. I was most impressed with his speed in the open field and his ability to track down ball carriers. Hackel is an aggressive tackler and does a nice job of shooting open gaps, which should come as no surprise as Hackel is also an impressive wrestler during the winter season. [player_tooltip player_id="205273" first="Damian" last="Tapio"] - RB - Mountain Iron-Buhl High School Tapio is a bit undersized but shows impressive athleticism and is a highlight reel waiting to happen any time he touches the ball. Tapio has breakaway speed and solid balance, making him a great prospect in the 2024 class. As Tapio continues to grow and add muscle he should be one of the top RB’s in his class by the time he graduates.   [player_tooltip player_id="242475" first="Jordan" last="Mount"] - WR/DB - Crosby-Ironton High School There’s not much film on Mount, but what film there is should excite most college coaches. Mount is undersized but plays with a nasty edge, isn’t afraid of contact and has plenty of speed to cover WR’s. This speed shows up on the offensive side of the ball as well when he runs go routes and separates with ease from DB’s. His growth and development will be key over the next few years but there’s plenty of talent to like if you’re a college coach.
