April Film Series: 2024s Pt. II

<em>Part 2 of April’s Film Series breakdown of the c/o 2024. Taking a look at athletic OT [player_tooltip player_id="273587" first="David" last="Clifford"] of Poway and electrifying playmaker [player_tooltip player_id="195571" first="Darius" last="Doyle"] of Kimball who will be participating in PRZ’s spring showcase May 8th. </em> <b>[player_tooltip player_id="273587" first="David" last="Clifford"]- OL, Poway</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Clifford was a standout sophomore last fall showing versatility lining up at both OT spots on the Poway front seven. He showed ability to move DL off the ball in the run game with powerful leg drive and athleticism/awareness picking up blocks on LBs at the second level. He’s a patient pass blocker that maintains good leverage and hand placement when engaging edge rushers. Clifford has an athletic OT frame at 6’4"/260 and should be on the verge of generating recruiting interest heading into his junior season. </span> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">A few 1-on-1 highlights from today’s camp. <a href="https://t.co/JIjcRis1tm">pic.twitter.com/JIjcRis1tm</a></p> — [player_tooltip player_id="273587" first="David" last="Clifford"] (@DavidDClifford) <a href="https://twitter.com/DavidDClifford/status/1490203589670699008?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 6, 2022</a></blockquote> <a href="http://blockquote%20class=twitter-tweetp%20lang=en%20dir=ltrA%20few%201-on-1%20highlights%20from%20today’s%20camp.%20a%20href=https://t.co/JIjcRis1tmpic.twitter.com/JIjcRis1tm/a/p—%20David%20Clifford%20(@DavidDClifford)%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/DavidDClifford/status/1490203589670699008?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwFebruary%206,%202022/a/blockquote%20script%20async%20src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js%20charset=utf-8/script"><script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script></a> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="195571" first="Darius" last="Doyle"]- ATH, Kimball</strong> Doyle was a dynamic two-way player at WR/DB for Kimball last season. He’s a quick-twitch athlete that plays extremely fast on both sides of the ball with blazing top-end speed and acceleration. He eats up space quickly as a DB, breaks down under control with active feet, and is a reliable tackler in space. He flashes high-level body control and ball skills at his WR spot showing ability to produce explosive plays with superior speed and athleticism. Doyle will be in attendance for PRZ’s spring showcase in May and could be one of the top testing performers to look out for at the event. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">Taking all fades in 2022! <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Reps?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Reps</a> <a href="https://t.co/YJ8JnnYAof">pic.twitter.com/YJ8JnnYAof</a></p> — [player_tooltip player_id="195571" first="Darius" last="Doyle"] (@DariusDoyle4) <a href="https://twitter.com/DariusDoyle4/status/1482927342125150209?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 17, 2022</a></blockquote> <a href="http://blockquote%20class=twitter-tweetp%20lang=en%20dir=ltrTaking%20all%20fades%20in%202022!%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/hashtag/Reps?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw#Reps/a%20a%20href=https://t.co/YJ8JnnYAofpic.twitter.com/YJ8JnnYAof/a/p—%20Darius%20Doyle%20(@DariusDoyle4)%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/DariusDoyle4/status/1482927342125150209?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwJanuary%2017,%202022/a/blockquote%20script%20async%20src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js%20charset=utf-8/script"><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></a> <b>[player_tooltip player_id="328565" first="Jeaden" last="Underwood"]- RB, King’s Academy</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Underwood was the leading rusher for King’s Academy last season totaling over 1,300 yards and 17 TDs. He runs with a low center of gravity at 5’7”/180 and is a difficult player to wrap up with his plus balance and stout lower half. He can make multiple guys miss in space showing burst in/out of his cuts and good downhill speed. Underwood will look to build off his productive sophomore season heading into the fall.</span> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">[player_tooltip player_id="328565" first="Jeaden" last="Underwood"] C/O 24’ RB 1st Team All League 1,353 Rushing Yards (10 games) 17 TD’s San Francisco Chronicle’s 2021 All Metro Football Honorable mention Mercury News 2021 All Bay Area Honorable Mention Cal-Hi Sports Soph All State Nominee<a href="https://t.co/ceNZYuPyrN">https://t.co/ceNZYuPyrN</a></p> — [player_tooltip player_id="328565" first="Jeaden" last="Underwood"] (@JeadenUnderwood) <a href="https://twitter.com/JeadenUnderwood/status/1516557221638770689?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 19, 2022</a></blockquote> <a href="http://blockquote%20class=twitter-tweetp%20lang=en%20dir=ltrJeaden%20Underwood%20C/O%2024’brRBbr1st%20Team%20All%20Leaguebr%201,353%20Rushing%20Yards%20(10%20games)br%2017%20TD’sbrSan%20Francisco%20Chronicle’s%202021%20All%20Metro%20Football%20Honorable%20mentionbrMercury%20News%202021%20All%20Bay%20Area%20Honorable%20MentionbrCal-Hi%20Sports%20Soph%20All%20State%20Nomineea%20href=https://t.co/ceNZYuPyrNhttps://t.co/ceNZYuPyrN/a/p—%20Jeaden%20Underwood%20(@JeadenUnderwood)%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/JeadenUnderwood/status/1516557221638770689?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwApril%2019,%202022/a/blockquote%20script%20async%20src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js%20charset=utf-8/script"><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></a> <b>Raman Valizade- OL, Aliso Niguel</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Valizade is a developing sophomore LT with a good feel and frame for the position at 6’2”/230. He does a good job of washing DL down and sealing lanes on the edge with his long arms and strong punch. He shows fluid movement working up to the second level picking up blocks and high effort finishing blocks. Would like to see more active feet when engaging blocks and explosion out of his stance but has a solid foundation of physicality and motor. </span> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">Check out this highlight! <a href="https://t.co/B96bsQls1a">https://t.co/B96bsQls1a</a> SOPH Season OL Highlights <a href="https://twitter.com/coachcalahan?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@coachcalahan</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/aliso_football?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@aliso_football</a></p> — raman valizade (@RamanValizade) <a href="https://twitter.com/RamanValizade/status/1468283307490111491?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 7, 2021</a></blockquote> <a href="http://blockquote%20class=twitter-tweetp%20lang=en%20dir=ltrCheck%20out%20this%20highlight!%20a%20href=https://t.co/B96bsQls1ahttps://t.co/B96bsQls1a/a%20SOPH%20Season%20OL%20Highlights%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/coachcalahan?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@coachcalahan/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/aliso_football?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@aliso_football/a/p—%20raman%20valizade%20(@RamanValizade)%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/RamanValizade/status/1468283307490111491?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwDecember%207,%202021/a/blockquote%20script%20async%20src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js%20charset=utf-8/script"><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></a> <b>[player_tooltip player_id="232291" first="Whitaker" last="Kruse"]- QB, Twelve Bridges</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Kruse was a PRZ StockUp Showcase participant where he showed promising measurables and arm strength. He’s accurate throwing shallow-intermediate routes over the middle </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">and can put the ball in spots outside the numbers. He looked all of 6’5” at the showcase and should add weight to his slender frame over the next few seasons. Kruse will look to take a big step in his development in his first full varsity season this fall. </span> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">Thanks so much to <a href="https://twitter.com/BrandonYounger?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BrandonYounger</a> for the invitation to <a href="https://twitter.com/RVCshowcase?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@RVCshowcase</a> .

McCulley will be looking to secure playing time in the secondary for St. Bonaventure in his first full varsity season this fall.</span> <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2FhsgM">Sophomore Highlights</a>
