He led the way for the Warriors defense tallying12 tackles and 2 TFL’s on the evening. Hammonds has the strength to set the edge and has a nice speed rush to penetrate and disrupt. He simply does not give up on plays, always playing to the whistle. What I also like is that in his effort to be disruptive he’s still assignment and gap sound. The junior defensive end has the frame to continue to fill out and get stronger. It’s easy to see why he’s picking up D1 offers and interest.
Wayne WR RJ Mukes RJ Mukes 5'11" | 170 lbs | WR Wayne | 2023 State OH 5’11 175- the senior wide receiver continued his big senior season finishing with 13 receptions for 99 yards and a huge 82-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. The Ball State commit is a polished route runner who creates separation by pushing hard in and out of his cuts. Once he gets it into the open, he has the speed to take it all the way to the house. Beyond the physical traits he’s just Mr. Reliable, never too high never too low.
Wayne OL Joshua Padilla Joshua Padilla 6'4" | 265 lbs | OL Huber Heights Wayne | 2023 State OH 6’4 280- It was easy to see why the Ohio State football staff is so high on the Warrior offensive lineman. Lining up at Right tackle, Padilla, showed good feet and athleticism in his pass sets. He plays with a good anchor and upper body strength that he uses to stalemate the defenders at the point of attack. In the run game he does a good job of locking in and driving the defender backwards. Padilla will likely move down to the guard position at the college level.
Wayne OL Evan Tengesdahl Evan Tengesdahl 6'4" | 280 lbs | OL Huber Heights Wayne | 2023 State OH 6’4 285- Tengesdahl lined up at left tackle for the Warriors. He’s patient and balanced in his pass set. He does a great job of mirroring the defender and plays with a great base. On a particular run play he showed off his athleticism and feet on a stretch zone play where he slide stepped and got wide and finished off the defender with a pancake block. Like Padilla, Evan will move down to the guard position at the collegiate level.
Wayne TE Kamaurri Smith Kamaurri Smith 6'5" | 200 lbs | TE Wayne | 2025 State OH 6’5 200- Smith is one of our top 2025 ranked tight ends in Ohio. He’ has fantastic length and is well put together for a sophomore. The first have was a little bit of a struggle, but when his team needed him in the second half he got loose and broke a 64 yard catch and run that set up the Warriors for the go ahead score and win. Smith looks like a big-time prospect in the making.
Springboro RB Wilzhaun Yates 6’0 155- Didn’t have his biggest night, but you could see the speed and athleticism that makes him electric with the ball in his hands. With his speed and elusiveness, he’s a terror in the open field. He used that speed to get to the perimeter and score both of Springboro’s touchdowns on the evening. Though Yates lines up at running back for the Panthers his body type and athleticism would suggest that he would project to the wide receiver position at the college level.
Wayne QB Tyrell Lewis Tyrell Lewis 6'0" | 175 lbs | QB Wayne | 2025 State OH 6’0 180- I came away very impressed with the sophomore QB. He has a great command for the Warriors offense. He gets the ball out quickly and accurately. He does a great job of getting his receivers the ball in places where they can make plays after the reception. Lewis did a great job of taking care of the ball, choosing to throw it away on a few different occasions rather than forcing the ball into coverage and risking an interception.
