The Hillside WR and DB has the potential to do some big things his senior year. A big sized safety, Marcus became known through the division has a hard hitter and a player you'd want to run the play away from. Marcus would scream up field to make a play at the line before the runner could make his way to the outside. He seems to catch the runner off guard with how quickly he gets up there.rnrnWith 66 total tackles and 5 interceptions on the season (2 returned for tds), Marcus was a turnover machine. The ball almost seemed to gravitate his direction because he was always in the right position defensively to make a play on it. Great on both sides of the ball, Marcus caught 3 touchdowns last fall and made it look effortless as he extended a lot of short routes for big gains. Marcus is set to have an impressive senior year.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64a2cc314de9e"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16285321/6372729fa0185c0d5cb2c3d8' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64a2cc314def9"} /--> <!-- 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":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='939310' first='Matt' last='Botvinis']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2495","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"New Providence","_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='939310' first='Matt' last='Botvinis'] is a focal point on New Providence's defense.

On offense, Jackson can hurt defenses in multiple ways. He was able to accumulate over 1000 total offensive yards last season. That includes all categories; passing, catching and running, and was also able to find the end zone 11 times. He is a tough runner from the QB position, and is able to improvise and make plays when they don't look successful from the start. With 2 interceptions from the defensive backfield, Jackson pursued runners aggressively in 2022 and finds ways to get between the ball and the receiver in pass coverage.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64a2cc314dffd"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/15119337/636dc8a9d225ce0ae87ac6c0' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64a2cc314e029"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["679058"],"_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":"An old school power back that will run it right down the throat of the defense, [player_tooltip player_id='679058' first='Evan' last='Toth'] is  Metuchen's soon to be star. With 562 yards on the ground and 8 touchdowns, Evan is a kid that is not going down after first contact. He will keep his feet churning and throw defenders off of him if they can't get a full grip. Most defenses need to gang tackle if they want to bring him to the ground.
