NV Program Preview: Silverado Skyhawks 

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>The Silverado Skyhawks roll into 2023 on the heels of a 12-0 season, in which they dominated every game with an average winning margin of 48 points, and two consecutive D-4A state championships. They return a talented trio of playmakers on offense and one of the top DL in the state, Nevada-commit [player_tooltip player_id='811157' first='Jayland' last='McGlothen']. Silverado will look to keep their winning streak alive with formidable NV opponents- Bishop Gorman, Liberty, Arbor View, and Desert Pines- on the schedule this season.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Schedule</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>8/18 vs. Cimarron-Memorial</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>8/25 vs. Basic&nbsp;</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>9/1 <strong>@ </strong>Foothill&nbsp;</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>9/8 <strong>@ </strong>Desert Pines&nbsp;</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>9/22 vs. Bishop Gorman&nbsp;</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>9/29 vs. Shadow Ridge&nbsp;</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>10/6 vs. Liberty&nbsp;</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>10/13 <strong>@ </strong>Coronado&nbsp;</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>10/20 <strong>@ </strong>Arbor View</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Offense&nbsp;</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Silverado's offense will look to replace the QB that helped lead the program to back-to-back state championships- Brandon Tunnell. Last season's leading rushers, Caden Harris and Donavyn Pellot (UCLA) combined for over 1800 yards and 35 TDs- senior RBs [player_tooltip player_id='819550' first='Marcus' last='Council'] and <strong>Tristan</strong> <strong>Hudson</strong> will look to replace that type of production this season. Council's a dynamic athlete that shows great vision between the tackles and can catch out of the backfield or as a WR. Hudson's a skilled two-way player (RB/CB) that offers natural playmaking ability with the ball in his hands. 2025 ATH <strong>D'Angelo</strong> <strong>Hagans</strong> is a smooth wideout that can challenge secondaries with his speed and vertical skillset.&nbsp;All three of these playmakers have major breakout potential heading into this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/lvsunsports/status/1682069905234079745?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/lvsunsports/status/1682069905234079745?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Defense&nbsp;</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>PRZ NV's #2-DL in the 2024 class, [player_tooltip player_id='811157' first='Jayland' last='McGlothen'], leads the defensive front-seven as a disruptive DT that explodes off the ball and constantly makes plays in the backfield. McGlothen's been a major offseason stock-riser picking up offers from Nevada, UNLV, Air Force, and Army before committing to Nevada in July. Junior DT <strong>Asaiah</strong> <strong>Feagai</strong> is another physical presence with high-motor on the Silverado DL. Two-way standout [player_tooltip player_id='819550' first='Marcus' last='Council'] (RB/LB) is an active tackler in the box with a nose for the football. Fellow two-way players <strong>D'angelo</strong> <strong>Hagans</strong> and <strong>Tristan</strong> <strong>Hudson</strong> should be impact players in the secondary.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/JaylandMcG/status/1682092630979792896?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/JaylandMcG/status/1682092630979792896?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed -->
