Continue ReadingThe 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 Jayland McGlothen Jayland McGlothen 6'2" | 250 lbs | DL Silverado | 2024 State NV . 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.

Offense
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 Marcus Council Marcus Council 5'11" | 195 lbs | ATH Silverado | 2024 State NV and Tristan Hudson 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 D’Angelo Hagans is a smooth wideout that can challenge secondaries with his speed and vertical skillset. All three of these playmakers have major breakout potential heading into this season.
Defense
PRZ NV’s #2-DL in the 2024 class, Jayland McGlothen Jayland McGlothen 6'2" | 250 lbs | DL Silverado | 2024 State NV , 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 Asaiah Feagai is another physical presence with high-motor on the Silverado DL. Two-way standout Marcus Council Marcus Council 5'11" | 195 lbs | ATH Silverado | 2024 State NV (RB/LB) is an active tackler in the box with a nose for the football. Fellow two-way players D’angelo Hagans and Tristan Hudson should be impact players in the secondary.
