Marcus Nixon Marcus Nixon 6'0" | 180 lbs | RB Squalicum | 2025 State WA – QB/DB/ATH – Squalicum HS
Marcus made the shift over from the running back position to step up for the team when they are in need of a QB. Nixon ran the offense nicely, being able to produce big time plays with his arms and his legs. He’s an athletic freak who is one of the quickest players in the class. On the defensive side of the ball, he’s a standout DB. He reads QB’s smoothly and quickly while being able to stay with WR’s while they run their routes. His jumping ability gives him the chance to win any jump-ball situations.
Jaylen Viars Jaylen Viars 6'4" | 185 lbs | QB Bothell | 2025 State WA – QB – Bothell HS
Jaylen is a top QB in the state. He plays in arguably the toughest conference in the entire state and out-plays opposing QB’s often. He’s a dual threat on the field, being able to scramble out of the pocket and create opportunities with his legs. He can sit in the pocket and deliver accurate strikes to his wideouts or he can deliver a dime while on the run, scrambling out of the pocket.
Parker Mady Parker Mady 5'11" | 170 lbs | ATH Curtis | 2025 State WA – WR – Curtis HS
Parker is an amazing offensive threat. He breaks tackles in the open field with ease and knows how to create enough separation to secure the catch. He’s a top WR in the 2025 class and has arguably some of the best hands in the state. His speed in the open field is impressive as well, having elusiveness to evade defenders. He excels on the defensive side of the ball as a defensive back as well, being able to stay with opposing players with ease.
Rylin Lang – WR/DB – Anacortes HS
Now here is a player that college coaches need to know. This Anacortes team took home the state championship and are STACKED with talent. I can confidently say that without Rylin’s play on the field, making some very BIG plays, they wouldn’t have made it as far as they did. He catches anything that is in his reach and even knows how to adjust his body in mid air to get the snag. He’s a solid defensive player as well, staying with opposing receivers with ease.
Keagan Howard Keagan Howard 6'1" | 215 lbs | LB Lake Stevens | 2025 State WA – LB/TE – Lake Stevens HS
Keagan played a big role on Lake Stevens’ defensive. He was an anchor at the linebacker position and made a plethora of tackles each and every week. He wraps up the ball carrier smoothly, having great form when tackling. He had over 120 tackles last season and will have a bigger role on the offensive side next season alongside QB Kolton Matson Kolton Matson 6'2" | 180 lbs | QB Lake Stevens | 2025 State WA .
