Canton McKinley
Cynceir McNeal, S/WR – Cynceir is a very talented athlete on both sides of the ball. He is tall at 6’4 and will fill out his 200 pound frame over the summer. At Safety he has good patience in his read steps and transitions well depending on run or pass. He is a good technician with the ball in the air and attacks it. He plays through the hands, flips his hips well, and closes fast on routes. At WR he plays to the boundary and commands the coverage. Has a large catch radius and attacks the ball with his hands and eyes. He can win the 50/50 balls and gets up in the air with ease. Runs good routes and has the speed to separate. Take a good look at him on film.

Jayden Gorham, FB/MLB – Jayden is one of the best LB’s in NE Ohio. He brings it every time he is on the field and plays with his hair on fire. He is one of the best blitzing LB’s I have evaluated all offseason. He has great twitch and athletic ability. He has the speed to make plays from sideline to sideline. He cancels underneath routes with good close out ability. He is a tackling machine with good hip pop and strength. He deserves a really good look on film.

Cody Seward, CB – It takes about 2.5 seconds for Cody to pop on film. He is an interception machine. He makes those interceptions utilizing his tremendous athleticism and closing ability. He has great technique in the run and pass. Slow in his read steps, transitions to the run well, and closes fast. He plays through the hands and makes plays. He gets to lockout quickly on blocks and sheds easily. Look for him to jump off this camp season.

Brad Kormanec, OL – Brad is a bruising OL with good pop and foot drive. He is a massive young man at 6’4 and 295. He has really good speed and comes off the ball with a flat back and devastating punch. He pulls well and covers up LB’s. His pass blocking technique is advanced and he creates a good interior pocket with his posture and strength.

Jackson
Colten Arnold, OL – Colten is one of the top OL returning in NE Ohio. He is tall with a good frame to fill out before college. He has good technique from the tackle position. He can drive defenders at the point of attack and cover them up on the outside with his feet. He has long arms and good pass posture with a hard punch. He knows the offense well and can be counted on to undertake the right assignment. Participates in three sports and carries a 3.2 gpa.

Matthew Sollberger, RB – Matt is one of the best backs in NE Ohio with the grades to boot. He has invitations from some of the best academic schools in the nation this summer. He is fast, athletic, and twitchy. He gets into the secondary very quickly and pulls away. He is shifty in the open field and makes tacklers miss. He blocks well with good pop and drive. Can catch out of the backfield as well and makes LB’s look unathletic. He is an impressive player deserving of all the accolades in the fall.
