Thatcher has been one of the best LBs since he started as a freshman at Arbor View HS. Thatcher has great size, explosion, leadership, and an extremely high football IQ. Thatcher is one of the best LB prospects in the country as he looks to lead the Arbor View defense in his senior campaign. Thatcher currently holds a whopping 31 D1 offer with USC being the current favorite. Do not be surprised though if the home team UNLV makes a push at the local superstar as signing day comes around the corner.
Kapanui currently holds offers from Colorado St. and Hawaii going into his senior campaign. Look for Kapanui to receive more offers as signing day approaches.

Ionae is a hard-nosed backer that has the ability to come down hill to stop the run as well as having the ability and athleticism to defend the pass. Ione has closed his recruitment and is committed to power 5 Oregon St. University. Look for Ioane to make big plays as he leads the Liberty Patriots is his senior campaign.

Inoke shows a high football IQ on tape that allows the LB to always be in position for a big play. Inoke shows great open field tackling as well as the ability to drop into coverage and make a play when the ball is in the air. Inoke has D1 size and film but does not currently hold a D1 offer. Look for the Centennial HS 4A state champion to receive his first offer by the end of his senior campaign.
Duffy has gained a lot of D1 interest this off-season as the Junior LB looks to gain his first offer. Duffy is a physical player with a lean frame and great ability to redirect his hips. Look for Duffy to start receiving offers and to have a dominating senior campaign for Faith Lutheran HS.
