Kyler Ronquillo Kyler Ronquillo 5'9" | 175 lbs | ATH Yelm | 2023 State WA , ATH, Yelm
Ronquillo is a flat out impressive overall athlete with the ability to be a threat anywhere he lines up and anytime he touches the ball. Loose hips with good twitch and burst frequently helps him set up and generate that explosiveness within his routes. Great ball skills all around with solid body control with the ability to extend past his frame in the air to make difficult plays. Really good range and instincts in the back half to estabish himself as a legit ball hawk. Good football IQ all around and is a very impressive and well polished player. He recently committed to Portland State over a PWO from Oregon on July 20th.
Isaiah Carlson Isaiah Carlson 6'2" | 215 lbs | ATH Ferndale | 2023 State WA , ATH, Ferndale
Carlson is a very physical player with the ability to be that difference maker on both sides of the ball. At RB, he possesses good balance after contact and will run through arm tackles, frequently springing himself free into open space. He flashes solid COD as a ball carrier and has that 2nd level speed to finish big runs. At LB, he plays well in space and does a great job with play rec and possesses good closing speed. I really like his explosiveness and technique through the tackle to frequently finish the play. Smart, agile, and physical player with big potneital moving forward.
River Lien River Lien 6'1" | 200 lbs | QB Glacier Peak | 2023 State WA , QB, Glacier Peak
Lien sizes up with a strong frame and build at 6’1″ 205lbs. Hardworking kid that has seemed to take strides this offseason, especially in the weight room by throwing up a 455lb squat. He’s a smooth all around athlete with playmaker ability with both his arm and his legs, and can shape into one of the most exciting QB’s to watch this fall. He picked up his first offer from Linfield back in June, which definitely shouldn’t be his last as I beieve he has all the potential in the world this season to blow up and rise his stock given his athleticism.
Jace Villers Jace Villers 6'3" | 195 lbs | WR Auburn Riverside | 2023 State WA , WR, Auburn-Riverside
Villers possesses a college ready frame at 6’3″ 185lbs and holds an offer from Portland State. He’s definitely worthy of that FCS attention he’s been getting, and will have a big opportinuty to turn that attention into offers this fall. Villers has really good length within that frame of his and possesses a large catch radius with the ability to extend past his frame and make those difficult grabs.
Maki Piper Maki Piper 6'2" | 220 lbs | LB Federal Way | 2023 State WA , LB, Highline
Piper holds offers from UNLV and Nevada heading into his senior year, but is a kid that every Mountain West program should take a look into at the very least. Excellent size and build at 6’2″ 215lbs with tremendous play strength and strength at the POA. Good range with lateral mobility to make plays along the boundary, and possesses a vicious striking ability when he can get squared up. Piper holds loads of potential to become one of the most feared defensive players in the state and should see that offer list dramatically grow when it’s all said and done.
