<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='741365' first='Dominic' last='Testa'] - Hickory Ridge - MVP</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Dominic followed up a strong junior season with an excellent performance at this event and earned the MVP award. As a slot receiver at 5'10 and 175 pounds, Dominic ran great routes with precision footwork and did not drop a ball throughout the entire event. He caught 68 passes last season and stands to have a huge year as a 2025 prospect and the main target in the passing game. </p>

<p><strong><br>Jaqai Carter - Cuthbertson</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Coming into the showcase, I knew Jaqai had a strong senior season catching 50 passes for a good Cuthbertson team, but he put on a very impressive showing at this event. He stands at 6'0 and shows on his highlights that he excels in one one-on-one situations - he can highpoint the football well and shows strong hands in catching the football with a wide catch radius. He should garner more recruiting attention after his showcase performance as a 2024 prospect. </p>

<p><strong><br>Reginald Lancaster - West Craven</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Standing at 6'1 and 160 pounds, Reginald did a very good job throughout the showcase. As a 2025 prospect, he had a strong junior season with 49 catches for 815 yards and 11 touchdowns. His highlight film shows a dynamic player who excels on returning kicks and punts on special teams. He also excels in catching the ball and immediately turning up field and getting to his top speed to run away from defenders and making big plays out of simple plays - screens, hitches, curls he can take the distance. He should have some immediate recruiting attention. </p>

<p><strong><br>Colin Reese - Cannon</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Colin showed what I've come to know about him the past two years - great speed and a home-run threat every time he touches the ball. The 2024 prospect has picked up an offer from Hampden-Sydney College to go along with Pikeville and Catawba. This past season he was very productive with 56 catches and nine touchdowns. I'm excited to see where Colin ends up on the next level!</p>

<p><strong><br>[player_tooltip player_id='449639' first='Ashton' last='Elliott'] - Northwood</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>As a 2024 prospect, Ashton had a strong performance throughout the showcase. He has very good speed and playmaking ability with the ball in space. This past season he had 617 receiving yards and 6 touchdowns on a team that had multiple offensive threats with the ball in their hands. I think he can help a college program on the next level!</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong><br>[player_tooltip player_id='772730' first='Kalib' last='Brown'] - South Johnston</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I didn't know much about Kalib coming into the showcase, however he impressed me with his athletic ability at the receiver position. As a 2024 prospect he stands at 6'1 and 200 pounds, and I think with his skill set he can play inside or outside receiver at the next level. He has very strong hands in catching the football, and his film shows he can both high point the football and make catches over the middle. Very good player. </p>
