Continue ReadingPrep Redzone was present at this past weekend’s Philly’s Finest 7v7 Tournament of Champions in Coatesville, PA, where some absolutely stellar talent took to the field. Talent came in from everywhere, showing just how far Philly’s Finest has come in the 7v7 circuit. The well-run camp and organization is an annual must for scouts such as myself. Connecticut and New Jersey were represented at the event along with numerous Pennsylvania programs.
In this piece, we will breakdown some new names out of the Wingmen (SJP) program that caught my eye from Day one.
Omillio Agard Omillio Agard 5'11" | 160 lbs | DB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA | 6’0, 175 | DB | 2024
James Heard | 6’2, 225 | EDGE/LB | 2023
Josiah Trotter Josiah Trotter 6'2" | 220 lbs | LB St. Joseph's Prep | 2023 State PA | 6’2, 220 | LB | 2023
Samaj Jones Samaj Jones 6'0" | 215 lbs | QB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA | 6’1, 210 | QB | 2024
I will get the easy and obvious standouts out of the way early. Omillio Agard Omillio Agard 5'11" | 160 lbs | DB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA and Samaj Jones Samaj Jones 6'0" | 215 lbs | QB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA were both present and active on Day one, which I attended. They both were as advertised and showed off the same brilliance at their respective positions that they have every time I see them live. Samaj Jones Samaj Jones 6'0" | 215 lbs | QB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA look to have beefed up in a good way, noticed this at the Under Armour Camp as well. Every read looked to be processed effortlessly by the sophomore quarterback. Excited to see how his work in the weight room will pay off this Fall.
Omillio Agard Omillio Agard 5'11" | 160 lbs | DB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA ’s total package is as complete as they come regardless of class. Our number one ranked prospect always looks the part. Anytime I see the young man, I try to find holes in his game or a negative as far as intangibles go, I have yet to do so. I won’t hold my breath either.
James Heard and Josiah Trotter Josiah Trotter 6'2" | 220 lbs | LB St. Joseph's Prep | 2023 State PA were both present on Day Two which I did not attend. Hearing from coaches, they both were stellar as usual. I would have loved to see Heard play in space and watch how he covers a zone. Based on Twitter clips, I could tell he is more than capable of playing passing zones given his elite athleticism.

Brandon Rehmann | 6’1, 180 | WR | 2024
Elijah Jones Elijah Jones 6'0" | 190 lbs | WR St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA | 5’11, 185 | WR | 2024
Alijah Turner Alijah Turner 5'11" | 160 lbs | WR St. Joseph's Prep | 2025 State PA | 5’10, 155 | WR | 2025
Rameir Hardy | 6’2, 170 | WR/QB | 2025
Here are some newer names outside of Jones and Turner. Four key offensive weapons for the Wingmen, none stood out more than Brandon Rehmann, who is new to me as well as the site as a whole. Frame is there, the ability to catch the ball away from his body is there. Loved the body control he showed off this weekend. The young man was often too much to handle in space where he could manipulate defensive backs to his liking. Was really impressed by 0. Rehmann’s got some wheels to challenge DB’s vertically as well. Exciting all-around player.
Elijah Jones Elijah Jones 6'0" | 190 lbs | WR St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA is self-listed at 5’11, 185 pounds. The young man looks 6’2, 210 from a glance. Might have had the surest hands at this entire event. Eases the ball in and has to be one of Jones’ more trusted weapons. Crisp route runner whose attention to detail is glaring. Dangerous in the redzone at this event, and will be this Fall as well. Elijah needs recruitment to heat up, it will in due time.
Happy to see Alijah Turner Alijah Turner 5'11" | 160 lbs | WR St. Joseph's Prep | 2025 State PA put in work with his squad. He is the perfect blend of speed and open-field athleticism to pair with Jones and Rehmann. Turner is just a freshman, so seeing him compete with some of the best juniors and sophomores in PA was fun to watch.
Rameir Hardy is a name I am looking forward to watching further along the line. I see he has experience at the QB position along with WR/ATH capabilities. Can’t wait to see how he develops. He is a must have on our rankings.
Isaiah West | 6’0, 210 | RB/LB | 2025
Erik Sanchez Erik Sanchez 5'11" | 190 lbs | RB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA | 5’11, 190 | RB | 2024
Freshman Isaiah West stood out immediately based on build alone. Awesome frame for a young RB/LB that will be put to use sooner rather than later. These events don’t always cater to true running backs yet the young man still ran routes and showed he can catch the ball in traffic. I have a feeling this kid is going to be special down the line. Was nice seeing sophomore Erik Sanchez Erik Sanchez 5'11" | 190 lbs | RB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA live too. His cuts and lateral displacement are a thing of beauty.
Shamir Johnson Shamir Johnson 6'0" | 180 lbs | DB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA | 6’0, 170 | DB | 2024
Keon Powell | 6’1, 180 | DB | 2024
Above are some newer defensive names to keep an eye on at SJP. Shamir Johnson Shamir Johnson 6'0" | 180 lbs | DB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA is a player I’ve been tracking for some time, while Keon Powell is relatively new to me. Both, playing alongside Omillio Agard Omillio Agard 5'11" | 160 lbs | DB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA , flourish when matched up one on one and both are equally confident and competitive. Eager to see more from both of these young men.
