<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The KC Varsity Combines have become one of the top events for athletes in Kansas and Missouri to attend during the off-season. Several hundred athletes have come through the two KC Varsity Combine events thus far this spring, with one more still to go. As far as the fastest 40-yard dash times, three of the top five times from 2027 prospects came from athletes on the <strong><a href="https://prepredzone.com/next/players-to-watch/2027-watchlist-updated-3-29/">2027 PRZ Next National Watchlist.</a></strong> Take a look below.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- 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":823283,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='934700' first='Trea' last='Hayes']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2410","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"","_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":"Hayes, who will be off to Olathe South High School in Kansas this fall, showed off impressive straight line speed at the KC Combine earlier this month.

Before taking his well-rounded athletic ability to Blue Valley Southwest High School in the fall, he did his thing at the KC Varsity Combine with a top-10 result in every combine drill, except the broad jump where he finished top-12. The biggest take away from his combine scores was his ability to start fast and finish fast.

Surprisingly, Augustus didn't finish in the top 10 of any other combine drill, but that's why the game is played rather than on a spreadsheet.
