Andrew is an explosive leaper who excels at winning on the contested jump ball in traffic and he attacks the football in the air with a purpose. Marsh is an elite runner who is a dangerous weapon in the open field and his ability to make plays after the catch is one the many tools in his box of skills. In 2022, Marsh was selected First Team All-District, as well as Newcomer of The Year in District 19-6A, catching 53 balls for 845 yards with 11 touchdowns. Marsh has a who's who list of collegiate programs on his offer sheet, such as Alabama, Auburn, Georgia and Baylor to name a few. Marsh is primed and ready to continue to elevate his game in 2023.rnrn[embed]https://twitter.com/AndrewaTmMarsh/status/1661835894171508764?s=20[/embed]rnrnu0026nbsp;","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["281657"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Jackson has a lean, long, athletic frame with an extended reach, he has an explosive get off at the point of attack and he has the speed to play from sideline to sideline and be a disruptive force. Lance has a powerful punch at engagement, he uses his length to keep blockers from getting in his chest and when he explodes off the edge he is a handful for offenses. Jackson is a versatile athlete that also plays tight end, he is an exceptional receiver, he has the speed to work the middle of the field, he has an extended catch radius that gives him an advantage in coverage and he has the speed to make plays in the open field. The 6'5 junior is one of the top players in the Class of 2025 regardless of position and college programs from around the country such as Alabama, Arkansas, Baylor, TCU, Texas and Wisconsin in the Big Ten have made the trip to Northeast Texas to get eyes on him. Look for Lance to continue to torment teams in 2023.rnrn[embed]https://twitter.com/lancejackson40/status/1667265256496812044?s=20[/embed]","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["919245"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Williams is a big time playmaker, who is gifted athletically, he has a stout, lean frame with an extended reach that gives him an advantage no matter where he lines up on the football field. Jonah has superb footwork as a defensive back, he transitions into his backpedal smoothly, he has flexible hips that enable him to turn, plant, break on the ball and explode covering ground in a hurry from his safety position. Williams is an excellent open field tackler, he uses great technique in pursuit while playing under control and he closes on ball carriers with violent intentions. Jonah and the Galveston Ball defense were stingy in 2022, going undefeated in the regular season, only allowing 31 points in 11 games and Jonah was in the mix all season, posting 53 tackles with 4 interceptions on the year. Williams was voted the District 9-5A Division I MVP, because of his stellar play in 2022. Jonah's stock on the recruiting trail has taken off like a rocket, as the top collegiate programs from around the country have come to South Texas to seek out one the top players in the Class of 2025 regardless of position. Williams's electrifying talent has caught the attention of  schools from coast to coast, including Arizona, Arkansas, LSU, Ohio State and Baylor, just to name a few. Williams narrowed his list down to 12 earlier this summer.rnrn[embed]https://twitter.com/JonahW409/status/1666840677349507075?s=20[/embed]","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":3,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64cbda93d10fa"} /-->
