There is no secret that NW Ohio has been gaining traction in the recruiting process in 2022; a significant part of that is due to the man down in Findlay, Luke Montgomery Luke Montgomery 6'4" | 295 lbs | OL Findlay | 2023 State OH . That said, many other 2023 prospects deserve to get a look. Let’s check them out.
Holmes will go down as one of the best players in Fremont Ross’s history. During his career with the Little Giants, he has gained almost 11,000 total yards and added over 100 touchdowns in his tenure. The silky smooth QB can do more than throw the ball, as he is a pure athlete on any athletic playing surface he chooses to play on. With a few service academy offers on the table, Holmes will mull over his offers and decide on what will give him the best chance at success at the next level. Reminder, he can play all over the field, and I could see Kaden finding a home in the Mid-American Conference as an ATH.
Clark has been the leader of Irish Nation for the past two seasons and has not disappointed. The crafty QB has many ways to beat you, which he has shown all season as the Irish advance to the 3 round of the playoffs with a big victory over Avon Lake. Clark has been an excellent decision-maker all season long and has limited the turnovers for his offense while extending their win streak to 11 games in a row. He put up 15 passing touchdowns and nearly 1,400 yards during that streak to complement it. He is a competent QB that should be looked at by many colleges, as he is flying under the radar now. Expect to see steam in his recruitment pick up the deeper they go in the playoffs.
Jack is a hidden gem regarding Wideouts in the Toledo region. Borer is a solid all-around receiver who can do everything well; I consider his archetype as a possession-playmaker. When you watch the film, you can see the separation he creates to get free, but you cannot help but notice the soft hands. He led the league with 50 catches for 877 yards with ten touchdowns during the regular season. Borer, along with several NW Ohio athletes, received PWO from the University of Toledo, indicating that D1 schools are warming up to his talents.
Highlights
Taron Crawford
Taron Crawford
Crawford was one of the top backs in 2022 and proved capable of being a full-time RB. The slashing-style running back has shown physical traits and the cunning quickness needed to elude tacklers. Where Crawford lacks speed, he makes up for it with his vision and acceleration. Taron finished the season with 19 touchdowns and 1,466 yards on the ground, which was a league-best. Crawford is a good back that will fit in well in most college RB rooms, late bloomer vibes.

The big-play wide receiver from Fremont ross was Holmes’s second favorite target behind Bryson Hammer Bryson Hammer 5’10” | 165 lbs | ATH Fremont Ross | 2023 State OH . Adam averaged 18 yards per catch off of 34 receptions. Very productive football player in all phases of the offense and does a great job blocking in the run game. Adam looks to get yards after each catch and has the potential to be a D1 football player from the film.
