<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Here we break down the top 15 recruits in the state of Washington for the 2025 class, with the rankings just being released. Have a look at the overall list here... </strong> </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/03/updated-2025-washington-rankings/">https://prepredzone.com/2023/03/updated-2025-washington-rankings/</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>1.[player_tooltip player_id='348137' first='T'Andre' last='Waverly'] 6-4 225 TE Kamiak&nbsp;<strong>OFFERS: Michigan, Washington, Miami, Mississippi St, Penn St, Ariz St, Oregon St, Wash St, Colorado, Arizona</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 4* recruit is just an exceptional overall athlete and currently ranked the #2 TE in America by 247. His ability to return kicks, play D, and run track makes him one of the more special &amp; versatile kids in the nation. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2.[player_tooltip player_id='273753' first='Jonathan' last='Epperson Jr']. 6-0 195 LB Auburn Riverside&nbsp;<strong>OFFERS: USC, Oregon, Utah, Washington, Wash St, Oregon St, Arizona</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Epperson Jr. has special instincts and some intangibles you can't teach, with the film speaking for itself. He earned 1<sup>st</sup>&nbsp;team all-conference honors as a sophomore making 77 total tackles, with 8.5 tackles for loss, and 2 sacks. The kids legit.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>3.[player_tooltip player_id='348138' first='Jayshon' last='Limar'] 6-1 205 RB Lake Stevens&nbsp;<strong>OFFERS: Oregon, Notre Dame, Arizona, Ariz St, Stanford, Ore St, Cal, Wash St</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The last name speaks for itself as you could see Limar blow up on a national level with a successful junior season. It's not a secret that he is one of the top RBs in the county for his class, but it's yet to be determined whether or not SEC schools and others will come calling. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>4.[player_tooltip player_id='693678' first='Noah' last='Flores'] 6-4 230 TE Graham-Kapowsin&nbsp;<strong>OFFERS: Michigan, Louisville&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Flores went down early in the season with an injury, but not before putting himself on the map. The offer from the Wolverines speaks volumes as you can expect him to be listed among the top tight ends in America.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>5.[player_tooltip player_id='693679' first='Peyton' last='Cunningham'] 6-1 180 ATH North Creek&nbsp;<strong>OFFERS: Washington St</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As noted numerous times, Cunningham is a special overall athlete who went for 857 yards and 8 TDs on 93 touches. Credit to the Cougars for being the first to offer as there will be many more.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>6.[player_tooltip player_id='348142' first='Antoine' last='Lee'] 5-10 195 RB Kentwood&nbsp;<strong>OFFERS: Arizona, Colorado</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Even with Kentwood going 2-8, Lee had an outstanding sophomore season averaging over 7 yards per carry. The early Pac 12 offers opens the door for numerous other universities to get in the mix this off season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>7.[player_tooltip player_id='348147' first='Zaydrius' last='Rainey-Sale'] 6-3 210 OLB Bethel&nbsp;<strong>OFFERS: Colorado, Nevada</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the fastest rising OLB prospects on the west coast. Rainey-Sale made 53 total tackles, with 5.5 tackles for loss, and 4 sacks while earning 2<sup>nd</sup>&nbsp;team all-conference accolades.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>8.[player_tooltip player_id='348139' first='Demetri' last='Manning'] 6-7 340 OL Bellevue&nbsp;<strong>OFFERS: Colorado</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Manning made the move from Kent-Meridian to Bellevue. He is a massive individual with an unlimited ceiling. Look for him to thrive as part of the Wolverines system while training with FSP. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>9.[player_tooltip player_id='348143' first='Ryken' last='Moon'] 5-11 180 ATH Bellevue<strong>&nbsp;OFFERS: Arizona</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The film and last name speak for itself. He will have the potential to blow up with a legit supporting cast around him. Look for him to be a state statistical leader and POY candidate.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>10.[player_tooltip player_id='348140' first='D'Aryhian' last='Clemons'] 6-0 170 RB Spanaway&nbsp;<strong>Lake OFFERS: Louisville</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Clemons had a good year in 2022, carrying 152 times for 1037 yards (6.8ypc) and 7 TD's. Opponents will key on him this coming season and make someone else on the Sentinels roster beat them.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>11.[player_tooltip player_id='693680' first='Marcus' last='Nixon'] 6-0 180 RB Squalicum<strong>&nbsp;OFFERS: Nevada</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Not a lot of people know about Nixon yet but they will. The kid out of Squalicum recently landed his first D1 offer from Nevada and will be a Conference POY favorite the next few seasons. As a sophomore he accounted for 1,296 all-purpose yards (810 rushing) with 11 TDs, earning 2<sup>nd</sup> team all-league honors. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>12.[player_tooltip player_id='693681' first='Malaki' last='Davis'] 6-5 215 TE Federal Way <strong>OFFERS: Nevada</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This off season as part of FSP will be telling. He earned honorable mention all-conference honors during the year. His 6-5 frame and overall athleticism is appealing as he will have plenty of universities watching. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>13.[player_tooltip player_id='693682' first='Willi' last='Wascher'] 6-3 290 OL Bellevue</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wascher broke out in 2022, earning 1<sup>st</sup>&nbsp;team all conference honors, and looking like one of the most dominant lineman in the state as a sophomore. Bellevue will once again be listed among the top teams in the West.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>14.[player_tooltip player_id='693683' first='Xavier' last='Ahrens'] 6-3 190 ATH Curtis</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ahrens has a real shot of being a top 5 recruit statewide. He earned 1<sup>st</sup> team all conference accolades on D returning multiple INTs for TDs, while also looking like one of the top receivers in the state. He's the real deal and could climb this list quick. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>15.[player_tooltip player_id='693684' first='Gavin' last='Packer'] 5-10 160 ATH Skyview&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the only sophomores in Washington to earn 1<sup>st</sup> team all-league honors on both sides of the football. Packer is a freak athlete who plays like he's 6-3, and will be a GSHL player of the year favorite in the coming seasons. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
