<p>1.[player_tooltip player_id='348139' first='Demetri' last='Manning'] 6-7 340 25' T Bellevue WA<strong> OFFERS (16) Miami, Oregon, Washington, Tennessee, UCLA</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Manning was already listed as one of the top lineman in the country being named the MVP at the All-American Combine in Texas. His overall agility is incredibly unique considering his massive size as his stock continues to skyrocket. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>2.[player_tooltip player_id='693682' first='Willi' last='Wascher'] 6-3 290 25' C Bellevue WA<strong> COMMITTED: USC</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Wascher's ability to play multiple spots including the center position adds to his recruiting appeal. He is a 2x state champ and 1st team all-conference OL, and just a winner in every sense of the word. Credit to him on being decisive in the recruiting process. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>3.[player_tooltip player_id='1188082' first='Gecova' last='Doyal'] 6-4 265 27' T Puyallup WA <strong>OFFERS (3) Tennessee, Washington, Miami</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Doyal has the potential of being one of the top ranked lineman in the country when all is said and done. He started every game as a freshman, putting together film that justifies his big-time early offers. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>4.[player_tooltip player_id='587332' first='Noah' last='Thomas'] 6-6 275 25' T Skyview WA <strong>COMMITTED: Oregon St </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This is a big get for OSU. Thomas had a breakout sophomore year, earning 1st team all GSHL accolades this past season. I would consider him somewhat underrated with the film and 6-6 frame speaking to his game. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>5.[player_tooltip player_id='569907' first='Ayden' last='Bullinger'] 6-5 235 27' 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 1st team all area honors as a freshman and is light years ahead of his peers up front. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>6.[player_tooltip player_id='1136307' first='Brady' last='Ackerman'] 6-4 260 25' T Nooksack Valley WA <strong>OFFERS (3) Montana, Montana St, E. Washington</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Ackerman has some of the best film out there, racking up 1st team all-conference honors on O & D. It can be extremely difficult to get recruited playing small school 1A ball. That said as his dominance on the offensive line left no doubt. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>7.[player_tooltip player_id='1095818' first='Markus' last='Fetcho'] 6-6 295 25' T/G Mead WA</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Watch the film as Fetcho could blow up this off season. The 1st team All GSL big man plays with a no-nonsense demeanor, landing some of the best blocks of any lineman in the region. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>8.[player_tooltip player_id='726157' first='Kingston' last='Fotualii'] 6-3 275 26' G O'Dea</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Fotualii is fundamentally elite, sustaining and maintaining his blocks as well as anyone. He has the ability to play on either side of the ball but was one of the best guards in the state as a sophomore. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>9.[player_tooltip player_id='945848' first='Nathaniel' last='Thornton'] 6-4 280 25' T North Kitsap WA <strong>OFFERS (1) UC Davis</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>As a sophomore the 1st team all-league lineman had 58 pancake blocks, highlighting his season. Watch the film and you see a kid who is fluid and will likely only get better as he adds size. Thornton made one of the biggest jumps in the state on the rankings board, also adding a D1 offer from UC Davis. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>10.[player_tooltip player_id='945876' first='Jack' last='Beardall'] 6-2 290 25' G Eastlake <strong>COMMITTED: Southern Utah</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Beardall was one of the most dominant lineman in Washington last season, helping the Wolves advance to the state semifinals. He was an unquestioned 1st team all-conference guard, making a smart decision by committing to FCS Southern Utah. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>11.[player_tooltip player_id='693727' first='Jubilee' last='Tasi'] 6-3 315 25' G Roosevelt <strong>OFFERS (1) Nevada</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Look for Tasi to be one of the top ranked interior lineman in the west for his class. He earned 1<sup>st</sup> team all-league honors as a junior while excelling as part of FSP. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>12.[player_tooltip player_id='1136353' first='Simon' last='Vander Wel'] 6-5 250 25' G Kings </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This kid has a ton of potential and could have his best years ahead of him. He earned 1<sup>st</sup> team all-league honors on both sides of the football, moving extremely well on the interior as a tall guard. If he can add some additional size and maintain his mobility the sky's the limit.</p>
