Griffin Kunz Griffin Kunz 6'0" | 200 lbs | ATH Skyridge | 2026 State UT || ATH || 6’0 || 170 || Skyridge High School || 2026
Kuntz possesses elite traits, and he displays them on both sides of the ball. At linebacker, he uses his sideline-to-sideline quickness to chase down and take down skill players. He also impresses with exceptional strength, allowing him to wrestle down tight ends. Speaking of tight ends on the offensive side, Kuntz can open up rushing lanes or make plays over the middle of the field. He works well with offensive linemen on double teams but can also move defensive ends one on one to open holes. Kuntz is an elite player and will be no matter where he lines up.
Aisa Galea’i Aisa Galea’i 6'0" | 170 lbs | ATH Timpview | 2026 State UT || ATH || 6’0 || 170 || Timpview High School || 2026
Galea’i’ is an exceptional athlete who can dominate his opponent every Friday night. He has long arms and great hips that make him an exceptional corner. Galea’i’ can run stride for stride with some of the class’s fastest receivers and quickly reacts to their movements. He has great hands and can be an elite returner too. Galeas’i’ times his pass breakups perfectly and can shut down whatever side of the field he’s on. He will be one of the state’s top corners very soon and will be a key piece in Timpview’s defense moving forward.
Rona Ka’ili Rona Ka’ili 6'2" | 170 lbs | QB Bingham | 2026 State UT || ATH || 6’2 || 170 || Bingham High School || 2026
We believe Arona could dominate at any position on the field, but he shined at quarterback for the Tigers in 2022. Arona possesses great touch and does a great job avoiding pressure while navigating the pocket. He has a great frame he uses to break out of sacks and shake off tacklers in the open field. Arona has good footwork and can deliver balls in the tightest of windows. He possesses a powerful arm and can deliver downfield strikes if he’s got a man open. Arona will be a problem for any team he faces for the next three years.
Roman Funk Roman Funk 6'1" | 165 lbs | RB Mountain Crest | 2026 State UT || ATH || 6’1 || 165 || Mountain Crest High School || 2026
Funk flies around the field, making plays. At receiver, he’s extremely hard to bring down after the catch with his shiftiness and speed, making him one of the state’s toughest tackles. His ability to make defenders miss in the open field is elite, and he can be a great chess piece for any offensive coordinator. Funk is also a dynamic defensive back who possesses excellent latter movement. He’s got good hips and great ball skills. He can come down and provide man coverage or breakup big pass plays on the backend.
