<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Armstrong High School is hoping to hang an L on the Golden Rams' perfect record. The Riverhawks are led by the WPIAL's leading passer in UPenn commit QB [player_tooltip player_id='64005' first='Cadin' last='Olsen']. Highlands has a division one Defensive End in Daniel Long that will put pressure on Armstrong &amp; Olsen.

Besides Ian, The Riverhawks have gotten a ton of offensive production from Wide Receivers [player_tooltip player_id='91546' first='Isaiah' last='Brown'] &amp; Kyan Kline. Highlands' starting signal caller [player_tooltip player_id='248210' first='Chandler' last='Thimons'] has thrown for over 600 yds, but does the most damage at LB for the Golden Rams. Ballhawking junior Free Safety Aaran Randolph, will be Highlands' secret weapon on the backend versus Olsen &amp; company. The Golden Rams' biggest offensive contributor is RB [player_tooltip player_id='377382' first='Luke' last='Bombalski'] whose rushed for over 800 yds in 22'. Rushing yardage won't come easy versus Armstrong's defensive leaders OLB [player_tooltip player_id='91546' first='Isaiah' last='Brown'], LB [player_tooltip player_id='92359' first='Dozick' last='Zablocki'], &amp; senior DE Owen Kamer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_634dfe114306e","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["64005"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Olson is the leading passer in the WPIAL, he's completed 130/206 passes for 2,034 yds, 28 TDs u0026amp; 10 Ints.
