Key Lumen Christi Players to Watch
Antwon Baker Antwon Baker 6'1" | 250 lbs | DL Lumen Christi | 2026 State MI | DL/LB | 2026 | Hudl
Baker is a physical player who shows the ability to get off blocks and make tackles effectively. Baker gets off the snap well and does a good job of using strength and leverage to plug gaps. Not only does Baker have good quickness off the snap he also has tremendous burst. He can shoot into the backfield and blow up plays before they can even develop. Baker plays with tremendous effort and shows great pursuit. I love Baker’s game and look forward to watching him play at a high level once again in 2024.
Kadale Williams Kadale Williams 6'1" | 180 lbs | ATH Lumen Christi | 2025 State MI | RB/DB | Lumen Christi | 2025 | Hudl
Williams was extremely productive this year for Lumen Christi, totaling 1,900 yards rushing and 33 rushing touchdowns. Williams has great speed and does a great job of hitting the hole quickly without hesitation. He has effortless burst and his stop/start ability is outstanding. Williams has excellent contact balance and has no problem breaking tackles. You can tell how great Williams is by how effortless everything looks for him. Williams has very good play strength and shows the ability to drag defenders with him and pick up extra yardage. Williams was a stud this past year for Lumen and has a chance to lead his team to another state-championship in 2024.
Parma Western | 2023 Record: 10-2 | Reached The Division-3 Regional Finals
Key Parma Western Players to Watch
Brody Videto | TE/LB | 2025 | Parma Western | Hudl
Videto is an excellent all-around tight end for Parma Western. He is a dominant blocker who is not shy about finishing blocks. He has good burst and does a good job of combining it with strength to knock defenders back. He has good hands as well and knows how to get open. He size and hands allow him to be a big-time redzone target. Videto is an excellent runner who will take snaps at quarterback as well. He runs with great physicality and will run over defenders. Videto will be a key part to Western’s success as a team in 2024.
Ronald London | OL | 2025 | Parma Western | Hudl
London is strong at the point of attack. He keeps good leverage and shows the ability to drive defenders out of the play. London shows very good play strength and does and excellent job of combining leverage and strength in the upper body to really control defenders to a point where they are unable to get off blocks. London is a good man and zone blocker. He is a good athlete who can make blocks in the open field on linebackers. London reacts quickly and does a good job of staying in front of defensive lineman who try to beat him with speed. London certainly shows the ability to pull. You can tell defenders really thought twice before getting in front of London when he was pulling towards them. This was the first time I had watched London’s tape but I was very impressed by his skill set. Another season like he had this past year and there is no doubt in my mind he will play divison-1 football.
