Tyler Hart-McNally Tyler Hart-McNally 5'10" | 175 lbs | ATH West Albany | 2025 State OR should thrive with the graduation of RB Marcus Allen Marcus Allen 6'0" | 200 lbs | RB West Albany | 2023 State OR who went for 15 TDs last year.

Brysen Kachel earned 1st team all-league accolades at TE along with George and has consistently been listed as one of Oregon’s top 10 recruits for the 2024 class. He was the POY on D but should also be tough to stop offensively.

OTHERS TO WATCH: Kyrin Fuimaono Kyrin Fuimaono 6'0" | 195 lbs | QB McKay | 2024 State OR will be a 4 year all conference starter at QB for Mckay, with teammate Justice Anthony Justice Anthony 5'10" | 165 lbs | ATH McKay | 2024 State OR earning 1st team all-league accolades at WR last season.
Cohen Mulick Cohen Mulick 6'0" | 165 lbs | ATH Silverton | 2024 OR is one of the lesser-known athletes at the 5A level, but is deserving of recognition, earning 1st team all-league honors on both sides of the ball. Silverton teammate Elijah Howard is another WR to make note of, being an honorable mention all-conference selection.
Two other athletes to watch who could end up being 1st team all-league guys include 6-4 190 QB Lukas Hews Lukas Hews 6'4" | 190 lbs | QB West Albany | 2024 State OR and RB/ATH Anthony Vestal of South Albany. Both were honorable mention all conference selections a year ago but have enormous upsides.
