Sanders has impressed at multiple camps this off-season and is a twitchy and violent edge player with heavy hands and a wide variety of pass rush moves at his disposal. Currently, he holds an offer from UNLV, but it should not be long until other Division I schools get into the mix for the talented pass rusher.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["683666"],"_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":"","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6408e48b82380"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Abarca can play a variety of positions along the defensive line and is a violent run defender with a strong inside strike, good pad level at the POA and can quickly get off blocks. He has ideal size for the interior but is athletic enough to play as a 5-tech and on the edge in some schemes. He is a high motor kid that shows quick block recognition and collapses the pocket quickly. Currently, UNLV has already offered the 2024 prospect. </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["683686"],"_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":"","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6408e48b823ce"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Asiata is one of the fastest rising Northern California defenders in the 2024 class and has seen some high academic DI schools offer recently. The talented edge rusher is a balanced defender that is a high motor kid and dominates all competition.
