Shelton HS: Gabriel Conklin c/ 2024. Conklin is an ATHLETE. He could easily be the starter at WR as well. He also plays the defensive side of the ball, lining up in the defensive backfield. I think he is going to have a big season as the main playmaker for the Hillclimbers.
Rochester HS: Tate Quarnstorm c/o 2024 or Kole Smith c/o 2025. From what I have heard from some players on the team, these two are in a tight starting position battle. They are around the same size and hold a lot of the capabilities. To me, Rochester can’t go wrong with either.
Aberdeen HS: Grady Springer c/o 2024 or Jakob Bowers c/o 2024. Grady was the starter last season on a very run-first team. Springer delivered nice balls when he needed too. Jakob is also up for the starting job. Bowers is an insane athlete, showcasing a ton of talent on the defensive side of the ball. He’s been dealing with some injuries but looks to have a fully healthy senior year.
Tumwater HS: Ethan Kastner Ethan Kastner 5'11" | 175 lbs | QB Tumwater | 2024 State WA c/o 2024. Ethan was arguably the top QB in the Evergreen 2A conference last year. He has an absolute beautiful deep ball, placing it perfectly into his WR’s hands as he’s in full sprint. He’s going to be a top 2024 QB in the state this season, if he isn’t already.
Black Hills HS: Jaxen Beck c/o 2025. Beck was the starter last year and showed a ton of potential on the field. He is excellent sitting back in the pocket on a 3-4 step drop but can also release it quickly on a 2 step drop and deliver it accurately. He has a ton of targets around him, it will be fun to watch this Black Hills team.
Centralia HS: Landon Jenkins c/o 2024. Landon was the starter last season so will likely be the one taking snaps behind center once again. He has a big frame that can take hits nicely. He has a quick release while sitting in the pocket.
WF West HS: Gage Brumfield Gage Brumfield 6'2" | 190 lbs | WR WF West | 2025 State WA c/o 2025. Gage is one of the best athletes on the team. When the coach was looking for a replacement at the QB position, he went right to his star WR. It will be interesting to see how Brumfield adjusts but personally, I think he will be just fine.
