Brighton Bengals
The Bengals will have one of the state’s toughest offenses to contain this fall. Quarterback Jack Johnson Jack Johnson 6'0" | 195 lbs | QB Brighton | 2024 State UT and receiver Nash Matheson Nash Matheson 6'1" | 190 lbs | WR Brighton | 2024 State UT are one of the best offensive duos in the state. Johnson has a potent arm and can make on-target passes even when on the move or off-platform. Matheson is one of the state’s best wideouts when it comes to tracking the ball and making contested catches. The Brighton offensive line should also be elite, led by Connor Melchior Connor Melchior 6'1" | 290 lbs | OL Brighton | 2025 State UT and Marshall Huber Marshall Huber 6'5" | 270 lbs | OL Brighton | 2026 State UT . The Bengals and Head Coach Casey Sutera should be in for a big year.
Highland Rams
The Rams will look to surprise teams in 2023. Region 6 is going to be a gauntlet, but they have the talent on both sides of the ball to secure several upsets this fall. Receiver Sefa Brown Sefa Brown 6'5" | 200 lbs | WR Highland | 2024 State UT is one of the state’s premier players on the outside. Brown is incredibly shifty and is an exceptional route runner. Highland also returns other dynamic skill players all over their offense. They will be strong up front with offensive linemen like Moala Molisi Moala Molisi 6'4" | 250 lbs | OL Highland | 2024 State UT paving the way. Brown is also an elite pass rusher and will lead a Rams defense with playmakers at all three levels. Highland Head Coach Kautai Olevao and his squad will be a tough out each Friday.
Skyline Eagles
The Eagles will look to knock off some of the top teams in 5A this fall. Offensively Running back Miles J Parker should be in for a dominant campaign. His quick feet and vision will help him maximize each carry. Parker should also play a role in Skyline’s success on defense. Look for Jonah Slighting to fly across the field, bringing down ball carriers. Head Coach John Rowbotham and the Eagles are ready for what will be one of the state’s toughest schedules.
