Prep Redzone May 6th Camp WPIAL Stand Out Players

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>For this article, I am writing about some players who stood out from the WPIAL. The WPIAL is one of the top areas in the state for talent and they were well-represented at this camp as well. Check it out below. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["647290"],"_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_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-645af0171a0c7"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='647290' first='Ethan' last='Shearer'] Central Valley</strong>. Shearer is a younger prospect as he is in the 2026 class, but he showed good skills at linebacker all day. He is a good athlete that is still working on his technique but showed good improvement during the camp. He also ran a 40 in 4.75 which is solid speed for a linebacker and something he can get even better with. Shearer flashed some good skills and should only improve with more playing time. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["602062"],"_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_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-645af0171a124"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='602062' first='Braden' last='Anderson'] Kiski Area. </strong>Anderson is another younger linebacker in the 2026 class. Anderson showed good athleticism for the position and did a nice job In all the drills. He did a nice job getting in and out of his breaks. Anderson showed good skills at a linebacker, and as the camp progressed he got better and better. He should only improve going forward and I bet he should have a strong Junior year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["497221"],"_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_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-645c0f646156d"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='497221' first='Keefer' last='Wolff'] Pittsburgh Central Catholic</strong>. Another young defensive lineman/linebacker who showed progress at the camp. Wolff is a good athlete that got better as the camp kept going. He did a good job with reading and reacting drills and did a nice job dropping in coverage in the different drills. Initially, when the competition phase started Wolff struggled but he got better as the camp went on. I am expecting Wolff to only get better and to have a strong Sophomore year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["819754"],"_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_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-645c0f64615d3"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='819754' first='Jonathan' last='Smith'] Pine Richland</strong>. A veteran offensive lineman who is entering his Senior year Smith was a consistent performer at the camp. He did a nice job all day competing and going against other linemen. He showed good skills and competed all day in drills. When he went to the competition phase he did a nice job competing against linemen that were bigger. Smith with a strong Senior year should have a good chance at playing College Football. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["810380"],"_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_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-645c0f646164d"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='810380' first='Joey' last='Felitsky'] Seneca Valley</strong>. Felitsky is a younger player as well and he struggled at times during the early phase of the camp. He struggled with the drills during the individual time period, but I saw him get better as the camp went on. When he got to the competition phase he made some good throws and showed good improvement. Felitsky showed enough promise that I think he should only improve. I expect him to get better in the next few years. Take the coaching and improve. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
