In 2022, Quintin’s excellent play helped the Withrow Tigers to an 8-win season where they advanced to the 2nd round of the playoffs and averaged 33 points per game. He lines up at WR where he plays on the outside and in the slot. He uses his very good acceleration and play speed to separate at the top of his route. He shows great hands as he possesses very good manual dexterity that enables him to catch the ball with his hands extended from his body. He elevates his play in the redzone which gives him a great chance to score when the ball is in his hands.
In 2022, Luka’s great play helped the Lakota West Firebirds to a 13-win season where they advanced to the 4th round of the playoffs and averaged 35.2 points per game. His rare height gives him a huge advantage when going against smaller defenders in the passing game. He displays good play speed as he separates and possesses good hands as he makes the catch. He is very good as a run blocker as he displays good play strength and use of hands in his punch, timing and placement and generates movement at the point of attack with his good foot drive and physical toughness.

Trace’s outstanding play in 2022 helped the Anderson Raptors to an 8-win season where they were on a hot streak at the end of the season advancing to the 4th round of the playoffs and averaged 42.2 points per game. He plays both outside WR positions. He is quick off the LOS and reads the coverage well. He shows fluid hips as he breaks off his stem at a 45-degree or 90-degree angle as he breaks open. His good play speed enables him to stretch a defense vertically. He displays excellent hands as he makes the catch with his arms fully extended and elevates his play in the redzone.

In 2022, Jameir’s very good play was a bright spot in the 5-6 season of the Mt. Healthy Fighting Owls where they averaged 29.6 points per game. He lines up at QB. He makes good decisions as he reads the defense. He has a quick release and demonstrates good accuracy passing the ball on short and intermediate routes with solid arm strength and delivers the deep ball with very good accuracy and touch. He is a solid athlete who keeps his eyes downfield while rolling out of the pocket and can deliver an accurate pass while on the move.
In 2022, Chase’s awesome play was a bright spot in the 5-7 season of the St. Xavier Bombers where they advanced to the 2nd round of the playoffs and averaged 21.9 points per game. He does a great job of reading the coverage, makes good decision and displays very good accuracy as he throws receivers open placing the ball on the correct shoulder giving the receiver a chance to maximize YAC. He shows good athleticism as he moves around both inside and outside the pocket. He keeps his eyes downfield before delivering an excellent ball while scrambling for a touchdown.
