West Fargo Sheyenne has been a class power in our time scouting the area and the 2023 season will be no different. Get to know the team below!
2024:
Ruebben Diehyee (DB), Highlights
Diehyee is a reliable Corner in both the pass and the run game. Displaying his speed, running step-for-step with the speedy receivers and keeping them in check for a whole game. Not only his speed, but his awareness and reaction time to make plays on the receiver’s route and the pass flying in their direction. Lastly, his tackling ability makes him a difference maker on the defensive side of the ball, really sealing the perimeter.
Wilson is your speedster type playmaker. I say playmaker because he can break a big play from the RB, Wing, or returning kicks. There is some flash to his game, but once he gets North-and-South a big play happens. Making one good cut for separation from the defender and really exploiting the gap in the defense. While taking handoffs is a big part of his game, the screen game works wonders for him. Following his blockers and letting the space open up for him to make easy, big runs.
Olson has is the type of DB that you would love to plug in anywhere in the secondary. Bottom line, the kid can tackle! Excellent form, good angles, good pad level and great amount of pop on contact, he has got in all defensively speaking. Seals the perimeter and makes big tackles for loss when the plays come his way. In pass coverage, he shows his speed running with receivers, but also timing in his hits to knock the pass out of the receivers hands.
Barry Kpeenu Barry Kpeenu 5'10" | 185 lbs | RB West Fargo Sheyenne | 2024 State ND (RB), Highlights
Kpeenu is the type of back that thrives in the style of offense that Sheyenne runs. His low center-of-gravity and quick feet get him through the gaps right as they open up. Once he gets through the gap, he hits the jets and really breaks off a big play for the offense. With the defense closing in, he can make a couple good moves and still get a good chunk of yardage on each play. If the speed doesn’t break the big play, he can still muscle through tackles and gain yards that way.
Cooper Fosher Cooper Fosher 6'4" | 255 lbs | OL West Fargo Sheyenne | 2024 SD (OL), Highlights
Fosher does the job he is tasked to do on each play. Having a good first step off the snap and keeping a good pad level to win the battle in the trenches. His muscle really shows in the first seconds of the snap. He consistently drives his guy a few yards off the ball and really widens the gap for his backs.
Grant Knodle Grant Knodle 6'2" | 200 lbs | LS West Fargo Sheyenne | 2024 State ND (LS), Highlights
Knodle is one of the guys that makes you really appreciate a good Long Snapper. When the Long Snapper can get his Punter and Field Goal Kicker in a constant rhythm, that’s when you win the Special Teams game and the close games. Knodle gets the ball back to his Punter with conviction and in the same spot every time.
Chase Aadland Chase Aadland 5'9" | K West Fargo Sheyenne | 2024 State ND (K), Highlights
In the tape provided, Aaland has good height and distance on his PAT’s. Having good footwork and approach to his kicks for a consistent result every time. He did show a good squib kick that not only gave his Kickoff team time to get down the field, but also got them the ball back.
