I love his speed and burst and he has the ability to really turn the corner and get past defenders. He adjusts to the football well as a receiver and has no problem with his size and strength winning contested catches. Amachree is one of the top players in the state of Michigan and will make a lot of big plays for this football team in 2024. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Adam Green | OL | 2025 | Hudl </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Haslett </strong>took advantage of Green's athletic ability by using him to pull often and execute blocks in the open field. Green has good overall strength that allows him to sustain blocks when run blocking and he has a good anchor in pass protection. Green uses his hands well and does not allow defenders to get his hands inside of him and control him. Green is excellent at handling defenders who try to bull rush him and is quick enough into his stance to prevent defenders from beating him with speed. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Final Analysis: Haslett </strong>will be a strong football program in 2024 and plays a tough schedule. The Lansing area has many strong football programs and it's interesting to see who the best one is. <strong>Haslett </strong>has a make their claim as the top program in Lansing and have many opportunities to prove it. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
