Oregon      *No Particular Order       [player_tooltip player_id='769915' first='Noah' last='Tishendorf']  OLB/RB 26' Lakeridge- One of the fastest rising recruits in the entire NW. Tishendorf ranked as my #4 overall recruit in Oregon for the 2026 class heading into the season and continues to up his stock. He earned 1st team all TRL honors on D and showed off his ability on offense, scoring both of his team's TDs in the 13-10 win over Sheldon.    [player_tooltip player_id='520433' first='Elias' last='Johnson'] CB/ATH 24' Jesuit- The Washington commit has been one of Oregon's most impressive players this season. He was clutch and then some in the Crusaders 34-28 win over Lake Oswego on Friday, doing his typical thing on D and recording 4 PBUs and 2 tackles. He had a career night offensively  as well with 3 TDs (2 receiving, 1 kick return)   [player_tooltip player_id='754594' first='Jack' last='Foley'] WR 25' Mountain View / [player_tooltip player_id='1011382' first='Angel' last='Valenzuela'] RB 26' Mountain View- What's crazy about the undefeated Cougars is that two of the state's top underclassmen in Foley and Valenzuela will be returning next season. Both are having 1st team all state seasons, with the 6-4 Foley catching 4 passes for 82 yards and 2 TDs. Valenzuela continued to do his thing, rushing 18 times for 127 yards and 3 TDs, in the teams 46-9 win over Eagle Point.    [player_tooltip player_id='152355' first='AJ' last='Noland'] WR/DB 24' Tualatin- Covering the last ½ decade, Noland is one of the top overall athletes to come out of the state. His ability to play any position and be the best at it speaks to his overall game. On Friday he caught 4 passes for 185 yards and 2 TDs in the team's 49-3 win over Roosevelt.    [player_tooltip player_id='402416' first='Lamarcus' last='Bell'] RB 26' Lake Oswego- I can't say enough good things about the sophomore back. On Friday he carried 8 times for 134 yards and 2 TDs, going for over 1100 on the season with 11 touchdowns and zero fumbles on the year.      [player_tooltip player_id='511302' first='Kallen' last='Gutridge'] QB 24' Wilsonville/ [player_tooltip player_id='511864' first='Mark' last='Wiepert'] ATH 25' Wilsonville- The 2-sport standout Gutridge, passed for 336 yards and 6 TDs, with the Oregon state baseball commit Wiepert catching 4 of those touchdowns (56,24,47,7) in the 42-7 win over Crater. Both project as 1st team all-state athletes and POY favorites.    [player_tooltip player_id='302220' first='Nicco' last='Simonetti'] DB 24' Tigard- Simonetti has had an outstanding senior season and will make a nice jump up the rankings board when updated. He was instrumental in the Tigers 17-0 playoff win over South Salem with 12 tackles, 2 PBUs, and 1 INT.    [player_tooltip player_id='511301' first='Evan' last='Morris'] S/ATH 24' Sherwood- One of Oregon's top two-way threats. Morris picked off another pass for a TD, in the team's 41-8 first round win over Oregon City. The Bowmen's defensive performance this season will go down as one of the best in state history. Expect Morris to be a 1st team all-state kid.    [player_tooltip player_id='285852' first='Avirey' last='Durdahl'] QB 25' Nelson- Durdahl and his guys have had an impressive year. They dominated a completely overmatched Wells team 48-8, hitting on 7 of 8 passes for 213 yards and 3 TDs in one half.   [player_tooltip player_id='511299' first='Roman' last='Martin'] CB/ATH 24' Tigard- The 3* CB had a phenomenal night, completely locking down the South Salem WR's, while going for over 100+ yards receiving and a 71-yard TD in the 17-0 win.   [player_tooltip player_id='511861' first='Sawyer' last='Teeney'] QB 25' Silverton- Teeney just continues to impress, accounting for 5 TDs in the teams 44-7 win over Hood River. On the night he totaled 303 yards, with 5 carries for 137 yards rushing, and 2 touchdowns.   [player_tooltip player_id='402427' first='Tyson' last='Davis'] RB 26' Central Catholic/ [player_tooltip player_id='402415' first='Killian' last='Sombe III'] 26' Centrral Catholic- Davis has shown flashes similar to former CC standout Cameron Scarlett, who headed off to Stanford and then to the NFL for a bit. On Friday he had a ridiculous stat line, rushing 3 times for 112 yards and 2 TDs, in the 56-0 win over North Medford. Sombe has been equally impressive on the year, providing the Rams with one of the best 1-2 punches in the West for their class.   [player_tooltip player_id='530494' first='Quinton' last='Olson'] DB 25' Scappoose- Olson is one of the better 4A players in the state, having an MVP type performance in the teams 34-13 win over Ashland. On the night he made 9 tackles to go with 7 catches for 133 yards and a TD offensively.    [player_tooltip player_id='738899' first='Jackson' last='Hersch'] DL 24' Mountain View- Everyone is aware of the Cougars offensive weapons, but Hersch is a big reason for the teams success on D. All year long he has been one of the top players on the field, taking a 68-yard pick to the house from his DE spot, in the team's 46-9 win over Eagle Point.
