In 2022, Javier’s very good play was a bright spot in the 5-6 season of the Mt. healthy Fighting Owls. He plays as a CB. Against the pass, he shows good football intelligence as he reads the hips of the WR and uses his good play speed to stay in phase with his man. He does a good job of locating the ball in the air before showing great hands as he comes down with the interception. Against the run, he displays very good quickness to evade the block from the WR. He locates the RB and exhibits good closing speed while playing with good leverage as he makes the tackle preventing a big gain.
In 2022, Charlton outstanding play was a bright spot in the 5-6 season of the Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy where they averaged 21.8 points per game. He plays as a RG. While run blocking, he fires out low, generates movement at the point of attack with his excellent drive and physical toughness. He plays until the whistle and finishes the block to the ground with ease against DT. In pass pro, he shows good flexibility and effectively reads the defense before using his good play strength to negate the progress of the DT and LB as he anchors.
In 2022, Eli helped the Archbishop Moeller Fighting Crusaders to a 13-win season where they averaged 31.7 points per game and advanced to the Division I semifinals. He lines up inline. He is a very good run blocker who uses his good play speed to reach the second level. Once there, he does a great job of sealing off the LB with his good use of hands and play strength. He is a reliable receiver especially in the redzone as he displays good hands and lowers his shoulder near the goal line as he runs over LB and falls forward into the endzone for a TD.
In 2022, Lyviel helped the Winton Woods Warriors to a 12-win season where they averaged 39.9 points per game and advanced to the 3rd round of the playoffs. He lines up predominantly inline. He is an outstanding run blocking who generates movement at the point of attack with his good play strength as he drives OLB off the ball with ease and creates a line for the RB. In the passing game, he uses his solid play speed to get open and displays good hands as he makes the catch. After the catch is made, he uses his quality contact balance to break tackles from LB and DB before picking up a first down.
In 2022, Jacob helped the Lakota West Firebirds to a 13-win season where they held opposing offenses to 10 points per game and advance to the 4th round of the playoffs. he plays as a SS/OLB. Against the run, he quickly keys and diagnoses the play. He takes good angles in pursuit and exhibits very good play strength as he makes the tackle with ease preventing a gain of significant yardage. Against the pass, he quickly penetrates the LOS, uses his quality play strength and physical toughness to disengage from the RB in pass pro and closes quickly before finishing up with a sack.
