Samaj Fuse Washington. Fuse played defensive line for Washington last year. Fuse is a disruptive force at the defensive line. He is very strong and uses that strength to disrupt offensive lines. He has good technique and uses his hands very well to attack the offensive lineman. He is a good athlete that can tackle skill players. Another key part of his game is his position versatility. At times Washington put him at the defensive end and he is very good at coming off the edge. Fuse also has a good motor and several times I saw him chase down ball carriers from behind. Fuse projects as a Division 1 football player and should only get better.
Christopher Climes Christopher Climes 6'2" | 270 lbs | DL Elizabeth Forward | 2025 State PA Elizabeth Forward. Climes is a very intriguing offensive lineman prospect. He played right tackle for Elizabeth Forward. Climes is very strong and uses his strength to engage defenders and then punish them. He has a nasty streak in that when he is blocking someone he usually punishes them. Climes has very good feet and can move. In pass blocking, he uses his feet well to stay in front of defenders. In the run game, he is very good at attacking and then finishing blocks against defenders. Climes projects as someone who should play College Football in the future. I am looking forward to seeing his progress.
Dominic Giles Dominic Giles 6'3" | 195 lbs | ATH Quaker Valley | 2025 State PA Quaker Valley. Giles is a really good athlete that played multiple positions for Quaker Valley. He played tight end, defensive end, and outside linebacker. At tight end, he showed good hands and the ability to run good routes. On the defensive, he showed his playmaking ability. At the defensive end, he sets the edge very well and makes a ton of plays. He will knock balls down, create turnovers and creates havoc for the offense. At linebacker, he is a very sound player who makes consistent tackles at or near the line of scrimmage. Giles is the type of player who should only get better with more playing time.
Camden Lewis Camden Lewis 6'3" | 220 lbs | ATH South Allegheny | 2025 State PA South Allegheny. Lewis played multiple positions for South Allegheny last year. He played running back, wide receiver, linebacker, and even some defensive end for South Allegheny. At running back he is a difference maker who is good at making people miss and by running through contact. Several times on film he just runs through tacklers. At wide receiver, he flashed good hands and made people miss in the open field. On defense, he is a good linebacker who makes a ton of tackles near the line of scrimmage. At defensive end, he uses his hands well and gets off the ball very well. Lewis has good size, is a good athlete, and can play all over the field.
Jamel Mitchell Jamel Mitchell 6'3" | 210 lbs | DL Union | 2025 State PA Union. Mitchell is a very good prospect at the defensive line. He is athletic and makes plays all over the field. He has a very good 1st step and just explodes off the ball. Then he is so athletic that offensive linemen have a hard time getting their hands on him. The other area of strength is how he uses his hands well attacking offensive linemen. He is very good at using his hands to attack an offensive lineman and then make a play against a ball carrier. Mitchell is also a playmaker at the defensive line. He can disrupt the quarterback’s timing by providing pressure against the quarterback and then that can lead to turnovers. Mitchell is a talented player at the defensive line position.
Highlights
Jayden Lindsey Jayden Lindsey 5'8" | 135 lbs | ATH Bishop Canevin | 2025 State PA Bishop Canevin. Lindsey is a very good athlete who played cornerback for Bishop Canevin. He has very good speed. You can see in his film how he can keep pace with wide receivers while he is in coverage. He has very good ball skills. Several times on film he made big plays by intercepting a pass or breaking it up. The other part of his game that is impressive is his ability to take an interception and then return it for a big gain. Lindsay is also very good at coming up and making a tackle. This is an important trait for cornerbacks when they are stuck on an island. Lindsay is a very impressive player who has all the talent to get better.
Jace Brown Jace Brown 6'0" | 185 lbs | LB Elizabeth Forward | 2025 State PA Elizabeth Forward. Brown played outside linebacker in a 3-4 defense for Elizabeth Forward. Brown is a very good outside linebacker that has natural instincts at playing the position. He knows how to come up and make a tackle, set the edge, and drop in coverage. For tackling he is a sound tackler that uses his body well to finish a tackle. For setting the edge he is good at reading and reacting to the play and then making sure that he defends the outside and forces everything inside. In coverage, he is very good at getting to his drops and being in the right place. Brown is also good at blitzing off the edge. Brown is a good prospect that should get better at outside linebackers.
Highlights
Tristan Vojtecky Tristan Vojtecky 6'2" | 275 lbs | OL Our Lady Sacred Heart | 2025 State PA Our Lady of The Sacred Heart. Vojtecky played left guard for Our Lady of The Sacred Heart. He has a great size for the position. Standing 6’4″ allows him to be big enough to control a defensive lineman. He is also very strong and can maul defensive linemen with his strength. He has excellent technique and that allows him to use his arms to extend and drive defenders. The other part of his game that is very good is his ability to pull and kick out. He has a knack for hitting a defender and then driving them when he pulls. Vojtecky has all the tools to continue to be a good offensive lineman.
