Pylon is known for it’s high level national 7v7 tournaments and is now getting into the camp series with new technology that is projected to be the future in evaluating rising athletic talent. Throughout the entirety of the camp athletes were evaluated and tracked by wearable GPS technology. This technology will provide real-time data in various categories such as top-end speed, acceleration, other metrics. The data will be used to compile a player rating. Collegiate Scouting services and college coaches will receive this data and ratings.
Mathew Harris Mathew Harris 6’4″ | 195 lbs | WR Acton, Ma | 2024 New E He had an exceptional day and opened many position coaches eyes during the day. His frame alone just pops and he can bend. ‘Harris displayed very good athletic coordination and reliable hands throughout the camp. rnCurrently holds a 3.3 gpa. Has quick first step, attacks ball with hands with very good catch radius from the length in his arms. He has many traits that stand out when viewing him. His play speed and tempo are good. Has mental toughness and competitiveness seen in his reps during the camp. Has experience with ability to separate and having dependability, and playmaking abilities. He can be a match up nightmare for undersized DB’s as he catches many balls at the highest point when thrown his way. He won the WR position MVP of the camp. He also took DB reps that were attractive and displayed his versatility.
He should grab college coaches attention this 2023 summer camp season.
Highlights
Krystian Pothel Krystian Pothel 6’0″ | 200 lbs | ATH Governor’s Academy | 2025 State New E He grabbed the attention of the defensive back coach during drill period. He displayed excellent speed during his speed competition and it translated to the field during competition drills. He has very good instincts and plays physical when pressing man to man. Performs a smooth backpedal with excellent catch-up speed and impressive burst to close. He doesn’t allow any free releases when pressing. His high strength ability is seen in his initial pop into the receiver at line of scrimmage. It was effective and seemed to slow or terminate the receivers release from line of scrimmage a majority of the time. He was selected as the Top Performer amongst DB’s and he also was selected as one of the two top fastest recruits at the camp.
I project “Pothel’ should have a attractive 2023 summer college camp season and his recruitment will take higher interest leading into the fall 2023 playing season.
Highlights
Adam Landry Adam Landry 6’5″ | 220 lbs | QB Phillips Andover | 2024 State New E “Landry” stood out amongst all qb’s on the day. He carries a lean 6’3″ frame and throws a very nice ball. He displayed very good athleticism with spot accuracy and consistency. He appeared confident in his abilities all day. His position Coach selected him as the Top performing QB at the camp. He performed very good mechanics. The velocity and ball placement is what really stood out to me when he threw. He can execute passing plays with decisiveness, timing, and rhythm.
He is a reclass recruit who will attend Phillips Exeter in fall 2023. He will surely be a recruit to grab college attention and interest after all said and done.
Highlights
Brady Fisher Brady Fisher 6’2″ | 195 lbs | ATH Suffield Academy | 2024 State New E What stood out amongst “Fisher” was his hidden speed combined with range and YAC athleticism. He is a reliable WR who can bend, jump and make difficult catches with excellent balance and body control. During a speed competition, he displayed his 2nd speed gear and overcame a tough opponent to win the fastest recruit at the camp award. He catches everything out in front of him and with firm strong hands. What I liked the most was how he is always looking to take the ball upfield after the catch for YAC. He turns quickly upfield after the catch and usually surprises the DB to how fast he make that transition. At first glance he appeared a little tight during drills, but he quickly erased that thought once he began competing and winning the majority of battles.
“Fisher” will be doing a reclass year at Suffield Academy in fall 2023. “Fisher’s” playmaking ability will give him opportunities at the next level and it should be a just a matter of time before he gets the attention he deserves.
Highlights
Jared Vilcina Brown Jared Vilcina Brown 6’2″ | 270 lbs | DL St. Mark’s | 2025 State New E Everything he did on the day was with high level effort and motor. Performing as an defensive lineman at 6’2″ 268lbs, he can move with good quickness. He displayed an excellent burst that simulated a pass rush to get tackles for losses. Some of the skills he posses and I observed him do was a quick reaction to run or pass. He can stick his foot in the ground, redirect and chase the football. Has the quickness to get that running back that’s going in the B gap, while he is in the A gap to make that play. He can redirect and get to the sideline.
He is still young enough and has room for additional growth and development. When he repeats his performance during this 2023 summer camp season, he will surely attract college attention. His strength pops.
