Ann Arbor Area Players Having Breakout Seasons

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='568190' first='Cole' last='Novara'] | WR | Dexter | <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2LqMHm">Hudl</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Novara has been a complete game changer as a return man. He has returned multiple punts for touchdowns this season. He has excellent speed and is a threat to take it the distance every time he gets the ball in his hands. <strong>Dexter </strong>plays him mostly in the slot and he does a great job of getting open quickly. I love the way he immediately turns up field to pick up yardage. Coming into this season <strong>Dexter</strong> was going to need young players to step up and make plays. Novara has certainly been that guy for <strong>Dexter</strong>. Dexter got off to a tough start this season but has bounced back. Novara will play a key part in this team continuing their success. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='212359' first='Isaiah' last='Harris'] | DE/OLD | Saline | <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2LrAv3">Hudl</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Harris looks even faster and stronger now in his sophomore season. He really excels coming off the edge in 2-point stance. He had a good game in the win against <strong>Monroe</strong>. Harris is does an outstanding job of pursuing ball carriers and he is a good-sure tackler. He does a good job of taking on blockers and certainly can hold the point of attack. <strong>Saline</strong> needed to improve defensively this year. Now with Harris becoming dominant on defense, <strong>Saline </strong>has everything in place to continue to win and compete for a state title. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='604131' first='Ronny' last='Johnson'] | RB | Dexter | <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16312070/64ed4a6215f75e0ae8f7c217">Hudl</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Johnson has been a key part to the <strong>Dexter </strong>running game. He was very good in the game I watched him play. He runs hard and bursts through holes very effectively. He is strong at finishing runs at the goaline for touchdowns. Running the football is a key part in having offensive success. Having a guy like <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='604131' first='Ronny' last='Johnson']</strong> will be key to <strong>Dexter </strong>running the ball well and controlling the clock. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='607341' first='Caid' last='Fox'] | WR | Saline </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Fox was a guy who I had on my radar heading into this season. He played really good football for <strong>Saline</strong> last year, especially down the stretch of the season. I love the way he competes to get open. He is a good route runner who shows good speed &amp; acceleration. He had a huge game in the win over <strong>Monroe. </strong>I expect him to keep being one of the main receiving targets for this <strong>Saline </strong>offense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Elijah Easley | RB/LB | Ann Arbor Huron</strong> | <strong><a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2LSNua">Hudl</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Easley has outstanding burst and it helps him to fly in the back field and disrupt opposing offenses plays. He is an outstanding tackler who really makes opponents pay for trying to run towards him. Easley is a great running back as well who does a great job of breaking tackles. He runs hard and shows good strength and power in his game. Easley has been very good this season and is a true difference maker on both sides of the ball for <strong>Ann Abro Huron. </strong>I look forward to seeing how he performs the rest of this season. His team takes on <strong>Saline </strong>tonight and Easley having a big game would be critical in them coming away with a win. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
