While being a two-way player along the offensive and defensive line, Owens displayed his strength and quickness regularly to help his team. Along the offensive line, Owens has sound form that keeps him low when initiating contact while firing out of his stance with impressive quickness. Able to overwhelm defensive linemen and linebackers alike, he packs a punch into his first contact to put defenders on skates. Has quick feet from the snap working in limited space from the center position. Good at gaining leverage with control to upend defenders. As a defensive lineman, he not only plugs up the middle to reduce running lanes, but he can get after speedy players in the backfield. Shows good form against skill position players to contain them with good lateral movement. Owens was the glue in the middle that allowed big plays to happen with his second level blocking, He is a player that showed more than enough in his junior season to be on the radar of some big colleges.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/video/3/19533447/6563dabc90ef3803e4d3c7dfu0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/video/3/19533447/6563dabc90ef3803e4d3c7dfu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["402364"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='402364' first='William' last='Conroy']'s sophomore campaign was so dominant from the right tackle position that he picked up a dozen Division I offers during the season.

Jarvis' power from the right tackle position showed up on a regular basis with 91 pancakes during his senior season while keeping his quarterback upright. In an offense that liked to sling the ball all over the field, he was more than adept at pass protection, but showed above average ability to block for screens with impressive form. When he gets his hands on a defender, even on screens where he releases up to the next level, he delivers a mean blow that sends a message. Handles blocks against smaller, quicker defensive backs by keeping the defender in front of him and striking at the right moment. Reliable player to perform at a high level every time he takes the field. Leverages his body well to stay under defenders' pads even with his height at 6-foot-2. Plays at 280-pounds, looks lighter on film because of his athleticism and speed. Jarvis has had a successful recruitment with several offers from schools such as Mercyhurst, Gannon, Lock Haven and a MAC offer from Toledo. Jarvis is the definition of turning hard work into success on the football field for a chance to be a Division I college athlete.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/video/3/14508138/6568ce1738641d0a746261c1u0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/video/3/14508138/6568ce1738641d0a746261c1u003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":4,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6578850c56dce"} /-->
