Tyler Konold Tyler Konold 6'0" | 200 lbs | ATH Canby | 2024 State OR 5-11 185 RB/ATH Canby- Konold has the potential of being Oregon’s 5A POY next season. As a Sophomore he earned 1st team all-state honors rushing 123 times for 1,412 yards (1st ) and 16 TDs during the regular season. He is at #26 on the top 100 list and could climb quickly.
Gabe Howard Gabe Howard 6'2" | 180 lbs | ATH West Linn | 2024 State OR 6-2 185 WR/CB West Linn- The Oregon baseball commit could play D1 football if that’s the route he pursued. The Lions have a special group of 24’s led by the likes of Howard, who is one of the more versatile kids in the state for his class. Look for him to be a big contributor on O, while making 11 total tackles, with 2 PBU’s and 1 INT as a Sophomore on defense.
Kenen Elder Kenen Elder 6'0" | 170 lbs | WR Tualatin | 2024 State OR 6-0 170 WR Tualatin- Elder hasn’t gotten much PT yet, as part of a loaded T-Wolves squad, but should be a featured athlete in the years ahead. As a Sophomore he caught 3 passes for 28 yards with 13 tackles on D, on their way to the 6A title game.
Jacob Hutchinson 6-2 180 QB Jesuit- Outstanding multi-sport athlete who started as a Sophomore for the tradition rich Crusaders program. It will be interesting to see if Hutchinson goes up top more, with two of the state’s top RBs and a run oriented attack.
Zavier Russell Zavier Russell 5'11" | 205 lbs | RB Lake Oswego | 2024 State OR 6-0 195 RB Jefferson- The Demo’s have produced some of the state’s top athletes recently, with Russell looking like the featured back over the next few years. He has been one of Team Lillard’s most impressive athletes thus far as we will hear a lot about him on the 7v7 circuit.
Kasen Covert Kasen Covert 6'0" | 185 lbs | QB Sherwood | 2024 State OR 5-11 175 QB Sherwood- One of the fastest rising QBs in Oregon. Covert has impressed on the 7v7 circuit, and with the Bowmen now throwing the ball, he should be able to show off what he can do statistically.
Nick Sakys Nick Sakys 6'2" | 205 lbs | QB West Linn | 2024 State OR 6-2 205 QB West Linn- Sakys’ is a big impressive kid who absolutely looked the part when given his opportunities as a Sophomore. In 4 games he hit on 68% of his passes (32/47) with 5 TDs/3 INTs. That said with 3* Sam Leavitt Sam Leavitt 6'2" | 200 lbs | QB West Linn | 2023 State OR making the move he will most likely have to wait his turn.
Connor Cesaro 6-3 180 WR North Medford- Cesaro has excelled as part of the rising MVP 7V7 program and looks to be one of the top WR’s in the state for his class. His time has been limited thus far but he will play a crucial role the next two seasons.
Jackson L Babbitt Jackson L Babbitt 6'1" | 175 lbs | DB Springfield | 2024 State OR 6-1 170 RB/ATH Sheldon- Babbit has good size and got in the mix as a Sophomore carrying the ball 26 times for 138 yards (5.3 ypc) and 3 TDs. QB Brock Thomas Brock Thomas 6'0" | 175 lbs | QB Sheldon | 2023 State OR is going to do his thing running the ball, but Grafton Robinson Grafton Robinson 5'10" | 175 lbs | ATH Sheldon | 2023 State OR and Babbit are nice alternatives.
Niko May Niko May 6'0" | 180 lbs | ATH Central Catholic | 2024 State OR 6-0 170 ATH Central Catholic- Most don’t don’t know about May yet, but he has excelled as part of Team Lillard, and has the potential of being one of the top skill kids in Oregon over the next two seasons.
