<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1188109' first='Braylen' last='Pope'] 6-2 175 WR Sumner <strong>OFFERS: Oregon, Miami, Oregon St, Washington St</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Probably the best overall player in Washington for the 2027 class. Pope's 36 catches for 603 yards and 11 TDs as a freshman was one of the best stat lines of any 9<sup>th</sup> grader in the West. Look for him to rank as a 4* WR and one of the country's top prospects for his class. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1188085' first='Sione' last='Kaho']</strong> 6-3 190 QB Lincoln</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I've personally talked a lot about Kahoe as I think he will blow up in the coming months. He started as a freshman for the Abes, throwing 18 TDs/7 INTs. Look for him to be a 30+ touchdown guy next season and help Lincoln once again compete for a 3A state title. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='569907' first='Ayden' last='Bullinger'] 6-5 235 T Graham Kapowsin</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Bullinger will end up being a 6-6 290-pound dominant tackle and one of the most recruited lineman in the West. He earned 1<sup>st</sup> team all area honors as a freshman and is light years ahead of his peers up front. It's rare to see a kid still so young, be this good. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1188082' first='Gecova' last='Doyal'] 6-4 250 T Puyallup </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This kid looks like the real deal. Doyal started at right tackle all season as a freshman and has a D1 body. The Vikings have a bunch of young talent, losing a tough 1<sup>st</sup> round playoff game to Skyline in OT last year. The big freshman gives them an elite presence up front for years to come. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='685276' first='Sirjewel' last='Glover'] 6-0 180 ATH Rainier Beach <strong>OFFERS: Nevada </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One of the top overall athletes in the NW. Glover did a little bit of everything as a freshman, scoring a handful of TDs with multiple INTs. He can play on either side of the ball and is an outstanding return man. Look for numerous other D1s to offer in the coming months. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='679625' first='Anthony' last='Cunningham'] 6-2 275 G/C North Creek</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Cunningham comes from a talented family and started every game as a freshman, allowing only 2 sacks. With his size he will be more of an interior lineman, giving North Creek a legit foundation up front, after finishing 3-6 last season but keeping it close in most of the KingCo games. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='635258' first='Thor' last='Brody'] 5-9 195 RB Camas</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Brody played some varsity ball at Camas as a freshman. Something very few people do. He went for over 1000+ all-purpose yards and double-digit TDs at the JV level and projects as one of the top RBs in WA in the years ahead. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1188132' first='Leo' last='Harnetiaux'] 6-2 180 QB Seattle Prep </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Harnetiaux will have a chance to be big time with his brother Austin Harnetiaux landing numerous D1 offers and committing to Nevada as a LB. Leo is a big kid who can beat you multiple ways. Seattle Prep will need his leadership and then some if they want to compete with O'Dea and Eastside Catholic in the Metro. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1188131' first='Dalton' last='Hargraves'] 5-9 175 ATH/Slot West Valley</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Hargraves had a breakout freshman season at the Varsity level, making 22 receptions for 326 yards and 6 TDs. Watch the film and you see a kid confident beyond his years. He could be a Columbia Basin- Big 9 POY candidate as early as next season. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='868722' first='Lukas' last='Lalji'] 6-0 165 QB Lynden </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Super good overall athlete. Lalji has been excelling as part of FSP and will lead a 2A Lynden program which competes for a state title every year. Expect his versatility to be the key component in wherever he ends up projecting. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='928131' first='Davin' last='Kirkwood'] 5-8 145 ATH Yelm</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Kirkwood has a chance to play early for Yelm. He's not the biggest kid but he has done well as part of FSP, proving himself against top competition. He should get some time next year and be one of the top players in the conference as a junior/senior. </p>
