Continue ReadingPerry and Liberty Center have both had fantastic seasons and come in at 15-0. Perry throws the ball a little more than Liberty Center, but at their cores both teams are built on ball control offense and physical defense. Here are my players to look for, in this game.
Perry
2024 RB Brayden Richards 6’0 180- Richards is a fluid athlete with great speed. He’ll line up in the backfield as a running back and at the slot position as a receiver depending on the play. He has legitimate track speed. (10.84 speed in the 100). In my opinion Richards could be a real X-Factor in this game. Brayden is committed Miami (OH).
2024 RB/LB Jayden Studio Jayden Studio 6'0" | 200 lbs | LB Perry | 2024 State OH 6’1 205- Studio is a big-time impact two-way player for the Pirates. At linebacker he’s a playmaker who can cover a lot of ground. He can definitely lower the boom. On offense he’s their main ball carrier and is an explosive runner who can make guys miss in the open field.
2025 QB Walter Moses Walter Moses 6'4" | 185 lbs | QB Perry | 2025 State OH 6’4 190- Moses has a great frame and the ability to stand tall in the pocket. He has a fluid throwing motion and a quick release. He can throw to all three levels.
2025 Owen Mckoon 6’0 185- McKoon is a physical mike linebacker who loves to blow up anything in his way. He’s definitely an old school linebacker.
Liberty Center
2024 OL/DL Landon Bockelman Landon Bockelman 6'3" | 265 lbs | OL Liberty Center | 2024 State OH 6’4 265-Bockelman plays right tackle for the Tigers. He plays with good pad level and is a violent striker who loves to finish.
2024 RB/LB Colton Kruse 6’1 190- Kruse is a big and physical running back. He plays with good pad level and leg drive. Perry better be ready to bring their lunch pales if they want to get this man down.
2024 RB/LB Trenton Kruse 6’0 180- Trenton is a linebacker who’s really comfortable in coverage. He has great instincts and ball skills. He will also isn’t afraid to lay the wood.
2024 WR Landen Kruse 6’1 175- Landen is a receiver who has good length. He has good footwork and can really stick his foot in the ground and make breaks that create separation.
