<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Battle At The Beach Week is finally here and there is a bevy of talented players at the wide receiver position who we will have a close eye to see how they start the season:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>[player_tooltip player_id='187876' first='Zion' last='Fowler'], St.Peter's Prep 2023</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>PRZ's number one player in the 2023 class is set to take the field with his first real action of the season. Coming off a scrimmage performance where he scored a long touchdown. Fowler will look to carry that momentum against a tough St. Augustine team. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Fowler has lofty goals this season, aiming to break the single-season receiving yards record, win the New Jersey Gatorade Player Of the Year award, and win a state championship. We believe that all these goals are attainable for him and his team. Zion is a receiver that has prototypical size and can win in any way an offensive coach needs a receiver to win. He's the most polished and talented wide receiver in the state, and as one person from his neighborhood in Jersey City stated to us " The hood needs Zion to dominate this year". All eyes will be on the Pitt commit this weekend. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/CantGuardZion/status/1541468468519862273","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/CantGuardZion/status/1541468468519862273 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/edaniels77/status/1561813205399257088","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/edaniels77/status/1561813205399257088 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>[player_tooltip player_id='220096' first='Tareq' last='Council'], Toms River North 2024</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Council is a freakishly gifted wide receiver who excels in contested catch situations and is special when grabbing 50/50 balls. He has great size at 6'3 180 and for a bigger receiver, he can move with the ball in his hands. With how run-heavy Tom Rivers' offense is, it will be intriguing to see how many opportunities he gets to make plays. Council currently has an offer from West Virginia. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/CantGuardTee/status/1469406791901618182","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/CantGuardTee/status/1469406791901618182 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p> </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>[player_tooltip player_id='183641' first='Najih' last='Rahman'], Red Bank 2023</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rahman is one of the more polished receivers and is one of the best route runners in the state. He's a player that has that dog in him and will do whatever the team needs to win. He's a great teammate and plays with chip on his shoulder. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If you ever had the chance to speak to him you can feel his passion for the game. Rahman is one of the most complete receivers in the state&nbsp; and will turn heads during BATB!&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/JSZ_Sports/status/1558128835253649409","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/JSZ_Sports/status/1558128835253649409 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>[player_tooltip player_id='218554' first='Lotzeir' last='Brooks'], Millville&nbsp;2025</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The most talked about wide receiver in the state [player_tooltip player_id='218554' first='Lotzeir' last='Brooks'] will look to build upon his record-setting freshman season. Setting the record for receiving  yards by a freshman previously held by [player_tooltip player_id='146667' first='Ejani' last='Shakir'] of Winslow. With game changing speed Brooks is one of the most dynamic players in the state. He holds  strong Power 5 offers from  programs like Oregon, Georgia, and Texas A&amp;M</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/JSZ_Sports/status/1468384636241911817","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/JSZ_Sports/status/1468384636241911817 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>[player_tooltip player_id='220098' first='Ta'Ron' last='Haile'], Millville 2024</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Not to be outdone by his  teammate Taron Haile is a great receiver in  his own right. He brings a game-changing level of dynamism to the table, especially with the ball in his hands. In addition he's a solid route runner with the ability to stack receivers deep and track the deep ball. Haile will be a key cog in an explosive Millville offense.  He holds offers from Syracuse, Penn State,  Nebraska, and Pitt. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/JFriedman57/status/1467656932345491459","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/JFriedman57/status/1467656932345491459 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>[player_tooltip player_id='220088' first='Kenyon' last='Massey'], St. Peter's Prep 2024</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>PRZ's number one wide receiver in the 2024 class is poised to have a great start to the season. Making the switch from St. Joes Regional to St. Peters Prep, Massey is looking to put all his talents on full display. Another savvy route runner, Kenyon has the ability to manipulate the tempo on his routes and play with great suddenness. Now playing with Pitt commit [player_tooltip player_id='187876' first='Zion' last='Fowler'] and Maryland commit [player_tooltip player_id='146477' first='Robert' last='Long']. Look for a breakout season from Massey and a strong performance during BATB. Massey holds an offer from Syracuse.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/KenyonMassey/status/1561368373367373826","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/KenyonMassey/status/1561368373367373826 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>[player_tooltip player_id='181934' first='Malcolm' last='Stansbury'], Edison 2023</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>&nbsp;Not the most talked about wide receiver in the state, but every bit as good as all the other receivers on this list. He's a shifty receiver at 6'1 160 with a long frame who knows how to get open versus zone coverage and can beat defensive players on deeper routes. Stansbury will be a standout player on both sides of the ball. Stansbury hold offers from Maine, Monmouth, and New Hampshire</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/1kMalc/status/1314962279394402304","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/1kMalc/status/1314962279394402304 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>[player_tooltip player_id='321787' first='Alim' last='Parks'], Cedar Creek 2024</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the hottest receiver names in the 2024 class Alim gained much notoriety tearing up the 7-on-7 scene this summer. Alim is a physical receiver and he play with an aggressive physicality. Look for defenders to have a tough tackling him. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AlimParks/status/1467987803367788546","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AlimParks/status/1467987803367788546 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2> </h2> <!-- /wp:heading -->
