<p>Fenn leads the state in points by a placekicker with 37. He's made five field goals and 22 extra points as he's helped the Pioneers offense remain potent. Fenn was on fire in Lehi's week five win over Herriman with two made field goals and six extra points in the Pioneers 48-28. He's accurate from either hash or the middle of the field and can make sure six points turns into seven after every touchdown.</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Saleapaga is not just one of the best pass catchers in the state but one of the top recruits in Utah. He's an elite athlete who can make plays as a tight end and receiver. Saleapaga can play any position on the field and showed off his exceptional athleticism with a 95-yard kickoff when he returned to the house against Wasatch. His long strides and elite speed help him separate from defenders. Saleapaga is tough to bring down and possesses excellent body control.</p>

<p>Young leads Roy in receiving yards with over 180 yards and has 100 yards rushing. The Royals athletic playmaker is also one of the top kick returners in the state. He made a huge play to kick off week five last Thursday night. Against Box Elder, the Royals were trailing big in the fourth quarter, and Young took a kickoff 70 yards to the house. This pulled the game within one score, and even though the Royals couldn't pull off the win, Young showed why he's one of the state's top returners with another dazzling run.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='402750' first='Kaue' last='Akana'] || ATH || 6'2 || 170 || Orem High School || 2026</strong></p>

<p>Akana is one of the most versatile players in the class of 2026, and all of his skills were on full display against Wasatch in Orem's dominant week five performance. The impressive freshman is a reliable kicker with three field goals and four PATs. Akana can gash defenses on the ground like he did with eight carries for 80 yards, including a 35-yard touchdown run. He also led the Tigers in receiving yards in large part due to his 75-yard touchdown.</p>
