Here we take a look at some of the fastest rising underclassmen in the state for the 2026 class. Rankings were recently updated as we highlight a few of the noteworthy athletes who continue to up their stock.         #23 [player_tooltip player_id='726175' first='Brody' last='Bocek'] 6-2 185 WR Richland   Bocek went off as a sophomore and is deserving of the bump up to #23 on the rankings board. He could end up as a top 10-15 kid with continued progression. The 6-2 wideout caught 65 passes for 1,027 yards and 14 TDs. The Bombers will feature one of the top WR duos in the West with him and [player_tooltip player_id='1136319' first='Colson' last='Mackey'].    #27 [player_tooltip player_id='402790' first='Greyson' last='Stevens'] 5-11 150 WR East Valley     Not the biggest kid but just an extremely talented football player. Stevens caught 55 balls for 1,026 yards and 12 TDs, while earning 1st team all-league honors as a 15-year-old. The sky's the limit if he continues to progress and add size.    #30 [player_tooltip player_id='1165423' first='Brady' last='Jay'] 6-1 170 QB Moses Lake      The conference Offensive POY as a Sophomore. Jay was lights out for most of the season, throwing for 3,251 yards and 48 TDs on 69% passing. The Mavericks went 8-2, losing their last two games to Eastmont and Chiawana in the playoffs to close the year.    #31 [player_tooltip player_id='987161' first='Lance' last='McGee'] 6-0 205 200 RB Davis    McGee received his first D1 offer from Nevada last summer and hasn't looked back since. Look for the multi-sport athlete to be a POY candidate within the conference and a featured kid on the camp circuit this off season.    #34 Haris Arnautovic 6-4 285 OL Mariner   The big man had lots of Pancakes as a sophomore and possesses legit size, which obviously helps from a recruitment standpoint. Mariner went 2-8 and is not a traditional power but Arnautovic can move and also play some D which is intriguing.    #59 [player_tooltip player_id='1165348' first='Luke' last='Morgan'] 6-0 175 WR Skyline   Expect Morgan to be one of the top receivers in WA next season and make a signifcant jump up the rankings board. The 2nd team all KingCo WR moves incredibly well in space and has film which speaks for itself. His rushing and receiving TDs were clutch in their 25-22 playoff win over Puyallup, helping to set the precedent for this coming season.    #62 [player_tooltip player_id='1165356' first='Jadeon' last='Scranton'] 6-2 220 RB Lincoln   Scranton is a big dude who should carry the load for the Abes this coming season. His 400 yards and 3 TDs last year is only a glimpse of what could lie ahead. With standout 2027 QB Sione Kahoe likely landing numerous D1 offers in the near future, Scranton could benefit a great deal with all of the attention given to the program.    #67 [player_tooltip player_id='1165359' first='Isaiah' last='Docken'] 6-4 185 WR Gonzaga Prep   The 6-4 WR was one of the only 2026 underclassmen to earn all-conference honors, garnering 2nd team accolades. He could be a double-digit TD receiver after scoring multiple TDs last year. Given GP's success and fellow 2026' standout RB [player_tooltip player_id='1165376' first='Jonah' last='Keller'] they have a real shot next season. The Bullpups went 8-0 in conference before losing to state power Graham Kapowsin 20-14 in the playoffs.    #71 [player_tooltip player_id='1165354' first='Elijah' last='Muliufi'] 6-6 210 TE Bethel    You gotta like 6-6. Bethel will receive a lot of attention with the state's top player [player_tooltip player_id='348147' first='Zaydrius' last='Rainey-Sale'] up in the mix. Muliufi could indirectly benefit as he can play multiple spots on either side of the ball. Look for him to make a big jump when the rankings are updated.    #76 [player_tooltip player_id='1165400' first='Mika' last='Petaia'] 5-9 185 ATH Auburn Riverside    The 1st team all-conference LB rushed 63 times with 331 total yards and a TD. He could be a talented small college athlete on either side of the ball. Look for him to play a key role offensively next season.
