is a 6’1, 285 pounds senior offensive lineman who bench presses 325-pounds and squats 500-pounds with a 3.2 GPA. He attended camps this past summer at the University of Arkansas and the University of Central Arkansas. Connor plans on attending camps this next summer at the University of Arkansas and Oklahoma State University with others possibly added.
He feels what separates him from other offensive linemen in the state is his strength, speed, aggressiveness and his effort to finish blocks. Connor shows his leadership on the field by his accountability, responsibility of keeping mistakes to a minimum and making his teammates accountable.
His personal goals for this upcoming season are to allow zero sacks by keeping the pressure off his quarterback, making All-State and receiving college interest with a team goal of winning a state championship. Connor feels that his strengths are being fast off the ball, aggression and his power.
He looks up to senior teammate

and offensive line coach Tadd Stewart whom he gives credit for making him the player that he is today. Connor enjoys run blocking and pulling the most in blocking. What he loves the most about playing football are his teammates and the physicality of the game. I feel that Connor has the right mindset and talent to make it to the next level of the game.

is a 6’0, 175 pound versatile athlete that has played multiple positions including wide receiver but loves playing quarterback the most because of being more involved in the game. He bench presses 215-pounds and squats 340-pounds. Carter has a 4.77 GPA and scored a 27 on his ACT Test.
He is unsure at this time which camps he will attend this coming summer. So far Carter has heard from the Air Force Academy with more expected. He feels that what separates him from other quarterbacks in the state is his work ethic and being very disciplined. Carter shows his leadership on the field by being vocal and keeping his teammates motivated.
He has personal goals this upcoming season by being better and winning more games and a team goal of winning a state championship. Carter feels his strengths are being fast with good vision and running hard. He looks up to senior running back

and his offensive coordinator and quarterback coach Justin Key. He was influenced the most in his football career by his father who played baseball at Arkansas Tech University.
What Carter loves the most about playing football is the competition and coming up on top of the game. Head coach Kim Dameron and offensive coordinator Justin Key give him the most support on the team. I feel that Carter has the leadership qualities and talent to lead his team to complete the expectations and a college career.

is a 5’8″, 180-pound senior running back who missed last season due to an injury but is ready to go this coming season for a breakout year. He bench presses 215-pounds with 4.6 speed and a 3.7 GPA. Amari attended camps this past summer at the University of Arkansas twice and Henderson State University. He is unsure at this time which camps he plans on attending this coming summer.
Amari has heard from the Air Force Academy thus far with more to come. What separates Amari from other running backs in the state is speed,strength in his legs and his change of direction by making defenders miss. He shows his leadership on the field by leading by example and by being supportive of his teammates.
Amari has personal goals this upcoming season of rushing for 1,000 yards and 500 yards receiving and a team goal of winning a state championship. His strengths are his speed, change of direction and vision. He receives the most support on his team from teammate

who pushes him by the competiveness.
Amari was influenced mostly by his brother a former wide receiver at Fort Smith Northside Avonte Tucker. What he loves the most about playing football is the opportunity it brings for future goals and the love of playing the game. I feel that Amari will succeed what he puts his mind to do and have a future in football.
