Duffy was the state’s leader in tackles with 167 total (126 solo) and TFLs (24) as a junior. He’s an active ILB that excels as a downhill run-stopper between the OTs and shows the range to tackle sideline-to-sideline. He’s an intelligent defender that can read/diagnose the backfield and is quick to trigger to the football. He meets ball-carriers in the hole with force and possesses a strong, athletic frame at 6’/210. Duffy, who’s drawn interest from UNLV and NAU, should be on the offer radar as an important offseason continues to shake out for the junior LB.
Highlights
Tiggs proved to be a versatile cover-corner for a talented Desert Pines secondary last season. He’s a well-rounded coverage defender that’s instinctive playing zone as the nickel and sticks to WRs in quarters/man coverage on the perimeter. He shows quick, twitchy movement and reactions when mirroring routes in press coverage and the speed to keep pace with WRs on deep routes. Tiggs is a developing, under-the-radar DB that should see significant opportunities to raise his stock this season with the graduation of Desert Pines’ top two corners- Jaylen Allen Jaylen Allen 6’0″ | 180 lbs | DB Desert Pines | 2024 State NV (UNLV) and DaMari Washington DaMari Washington 6’1″ | 170 lbs | DB Desert Pines | 2024 State NV (Portland St).
Highlights
Pringle was a standout defender for Faith Lutheran as a sophomore, leading the team in tackles (84), TFLs (15), and INTs (5) before transferring to Arbor View and sitting out his junior season. He’s an athletic, multi-tool OLB that can be disruptive attacking the backfield off the edge and is a playmaker on the ball when dropping into coverage. In coverage, he shows high-IQ diagnosing short/underneath route concepts, possesses rangy lateral movement and change-of-direction, advanced instincts/ball skills for his position, and rangy change-of-direction and lateral movement. He attacks ball-carriers aggressively downhill and shows impressive closing speed tracking down the ball in space. Pringle should be a high impact defender for one of the most talented LB groups in the state heading into the fall.
Edquilang produced a breakout season as the leading receiver for Green Valley with 54 catches for over 800 yards and 5 TDs as a junior. He’s a compact slot WR (5’7”/155) with the type of stop-start agility, foot quickness, and body control required of interior playmakers. He possesses strong, absorbent hands making difficult catches look easy and can adjust his body to finishes catches outside his frame. Edquilang’s athletic skillset and production as a junior have him positioned as one of the top playmakers out of the slot in Vegas.
Farmer was a dynamic playmaker for the 2A state champs last season, recording 30 catches for 760 yards and 13 TDs as a junior. He’s a strong runner with the football that’s effective in the screen game and flashes the vertical skillset to produce explosive plays over-the-top. He’s a difficult player to wrap in space with the powerful downhill momentum he generates after the catch and shows quick, natural hands as a pass catcher. Farmer should continue to be a top weapon for a young, talented Lake Mead team.
