Here are some names to know from the top of the state of Idaho:
Lathen is one heck of a football player as he put up a huge junior season for Lewiston. Lathen put up huge numbers for Lewiston on his way to a Co-Offensive Player of the Year honor. A tough downhill runner that has a unique blend of power and speed. Lathen is your quintessential one cut running back that make a decision quickly and gets his shoulders down hill. His break away speed is deceiving as he is so smooth while running that he just passes opponents by. Lathen has a multitude of tools at his disposal as he is a legitimate threat out of the backfield and can really make a huge impact in the passing game. Lathen can be a home run during any point of the game which is his best ability. Lathen is one to watch and know as he is going to really turn some heads again this year and mostly the college heads.
Burns can flat out fly as he is a true speed back and really is dangerous on the edge. Burns is one of the top players returning for Post Falls. Burns has the ability to really grow into the position as one of the top players in the league was in front of him this year but its now his show. As the feature back for Post Falls, Burns will be able to show all he can do for the Trojans this year. As a smaller back he uses his quickness and elite speed to make people miss in the open field. He is hard to take down and would be described as someone who can make you miss in a phonebooth. Burns is going to be in contention for not only another all conference nod but for a player of the year.

Coeur d’Alene has a budding star in the wings with Ivankovich as he has the length needed to really be a force on the edge. Ivankovich was an all conference player for the Viking this season and is only tapping into his potential. He has positional versatility as he can move on the edge and play in the interior. He has a quick first step that allows him to get up the field quickly and uses his hands well. He has a good push pull that he uses often to get offensive lineman off balance. He has high upside as it just depends on how he grows into his 6’4” frame. If he wanted to he could be a dominant interior defensive lineman if he gained good weight or he could decide to stay on the leaner side and play outside on the edge. What really shows up on film is his effort where he doesn’t take any plays off. We are expecting a dominant year for him and should be on college radars.
