<p>Callaway took home the East side MVP award following hard and passionate running efforts throughout the game. This kid can play on both sides of the ball but could land a roster spot at the running back position with more speed training. He's had a solid high school campaign with a few college interest offers but still looking to find his new home. </p>

<p>We've said it various times throughout the fall season, this kid is a tough and physical linebacker product with sure tackle abilities combined with the grit to set the edge with his frame. Tyer was the other MVP on the night because of his tackling efforts and DOG mentality in his final high school game. Local college coaches looking for a legit tackle machine, tap in with Tyer.</p>

<p>King took home the GPA award because of his scholarly efforts in the classroom. The 6-1, 170-pounder has a 4.1 GPA at Lake Region High, showing that college coaches can rely on him to get it done in regards to education. He's a lengthy defensive back product with decent coverage skills and surely can impact some of the local colleges. </p>

<p><strong>Anthony Oldham | ATH | 2024 | Kathleen | @Anthonyoldhamqb</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This kid is a pure athlete on the gridiron where he played the quarterback position in his senior season but no doubt Oldham is an electric runner with the ball in his hands. Has a decent frame at 5-10, 185 pounds and is looking to provide versatility at the college level. </p>
