<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='572405' first='Tate' last='Kjar'] WR || 5'10 || 150 || Corner Canyon High School || 2024 </strong><br>7-11 and Kjar have one thing in common...they're always open. Kjar is an elite route runner who can win at every field level. He can beat any coverage and comes in and out of his breaks like a seasoned college receiver. Kjra adjusted to the ball incredibly well and can make acrobatic catches look route. His connection with Chargers quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='406954' first='Isaac' last='Wilson'] is exceptional, and the pair always seem to move the chains or find the endzone when Corner Canyon needs them most. As our top-ranked receiver in the class of 2024, Kjar is truly one of the state's best players and will be a game-changer to any program at the next level. </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='406983' first='Luke' last='Livingston'] WR || 5'11 || 175 || Timpanogos High School || 2024 </strong><br>Livingston is an incredible athlete. He made plays at quarterback, running back and could dominate on defenses if needed. Livingston projects at the next level as an elite receiver, and it's easy to see why when watching his tape. His speed is next level, and once he turns on the jets, defenders have a hard time catching him from behind. After the catch, he is incredibly difficult to take down after the catch, with his quick feet helping him slip out of tackles. Livingston is a playmaker with the ball in his hands, and only a select few players share his ability to make big plays at a high rate in the state.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='532695' first='Nash' last='Matheson'] WR || 6'1 || 190 || Brighton High School || 2024</strong><br>Matheson was one of the state's most targeted receivers in 2022, and it's easy to see why. He's a quarterback's best friend with his ability to make contested catches. Matheson does a great job tracking the ball and can make acrobatic adjustments to come down with improbable catches. He is also an elite athlete who can get behind defenders with his speed or moss them with his impressive vertical. In addition, Matheson has excellent hands and is a skilled route runner. He doesn't skip days in the weight room and can outmuscle corners to make contested catches and toss defensive backs out of the way after the catch.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='406994' first='Drew' last='Deucher'] WR || 5'10 || 140 || Provo High School || 2024 </strong><br>Deucher has a wide catch radius and puts it to good use. He can extend for passes that appear overthrown and come down with big catches to flip the field for his team. Deucher is also an elite red-zone target who makes 50/50 balls more like 70/30. He can get up to high-point passes as well as any receiver in the state. Deucher is shifty and strong, which helps him score touchdown after touchdown. He's a team-first player willing to block to open things up for other receivers. Deucher fights for every yard after the catch, and defenders have a hard time containing him for 48 minutes.</p>
