Division Returners: American Gold

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The American Gold Division has some of the most impressive starters returning for their junior and senior years. In 2022, you saw players put themselves on the map and gain attention from a national level. American Gold is a very competitive division. However, we saw Caldwell absolutely dominate throughout the season, and are now bringing back key components of that 2022 roster. Here are some of the top returners from the American Gold division. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["380333"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='380333' first='Greg' last='Randall'] was a do it all player for Madison in 2022. The 6'1u0022 Athlete lined up mostly from the running back position, but could be found in the slot as well. A slippery ball carrier, Greg is extremely quick when the ball is in his hands. He's not only a threat lining up behind the quarterback, but his skills extend to catching and being a return man on special teams. He has reliable hands, and can turn up field quickly to make a play after the catch. Greg's future is bright, and it will be exciting to see how good he can be his senior year. Madison finished the season 6-3 and 3rd in the American Gold division, but don't be surprised if they make a push for the division in 2023.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-642eee4d1cb01"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/15401443/6330a5a7066c120bf4653e59' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64314c2c11fb3"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["380323"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"If you need a player to carry a team on his back, [player_tooltip player_id='380323' first='Matt' last='Lahoe'] is your guy.

Playing QB, WR, corner and safety, it was hard to keep track of him on the field. While on offense, Caldwell put him all over the field as they used his abilities to the fullest. Louis was able to execute at a very high level, gaining 287 yards on the ground and 145 in the air, and also running in 4 touchdowns. He truly can run, pass, and catch exceptionally well. It was really impressive to see what he was able to do on offense in 2022.rnrnDefensively, he was just as great. He brought in 31 tackles and hauled in 3 interceptions. Few teams were successful throwing to Louis' side of the field. With playing so many different roles for Caldwell in 2022, it is hard to determine what position Louis will end up playing at the next level. What I am sure of is Caldwell may be making another undefeated run with the help of Louis Anemone.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-642eee4d1cbf2"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/14632644/637a83374210260838b83a11' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64314c2c12195"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["220104"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='220104' first='Julian' last='Casale']'s tape needs to be watched multiple times, he is a force to be reckoned with. The 6'0u0022 middle linebacker for Caldwell absolutely destroys offensive schemes. This guy can fly around the field with speeds you wouldn't expect from a guy his size. He can blow up the play between the tackles, or can run the line and sweep the runners legs before they get to the next level. Most impressive, Julian delivers punishing hits, throwing runners around as if they were half his size.rnrnWith quick reflexes and a great understanding of the game, he can determine the offensive play as soon as the ball is snapped. He shoot the hole with deadly precision, and wrap up the ball carrier the moment the ball is in his hands. Most teams just have a hard time getting the ball back to the line of scrimmage when playing against Caldwell. With 115 total tackles and 9 sacks, Julian and his defense only let up 117 points all of last season (9 points per game.) Those are insane stats, and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if they did it again in 2023.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-642eee4d1cc8f"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/10268252/639288d50660c609dc0f8f1e' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64314c2c1223e"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='1021111' first='Hector' last='Lopez'] III","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2496","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Hanover Park","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='1021111' first='Hector' last='Lopez'] III is one of those extremely intelligent football players on the field.
