<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1165459' first='Tyrone' last='Jones'] 6-0 165 26' Safety Lincoln WA</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One of the fastest rising DB prospects in the state of Washington. Jones made 40 tackles with 2 INTs as a sophomore at Lakes, before making the transfer to Lincoln this season. Watch the film as his speed and tackling ability speak for itself. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1350448' first='Cohen' last='Meis'] 5-11 180 26' DB North Kitsap WA</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Another kid who has a stock that is skyrocketing. Meis helped North Kitsap go 11-2 last season as a sophomore, putting up one of the best stat lines in the state with 43 tackles, 7 INTs, and 10 tackles for loss. He has had an outstanding off season thus far, recently MVPing a camp at Central Washington. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1165398' first='Austin' last='Gilvar'] 6-3 220 26' LB Sumner WA </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Gilvar put together one of the most impressive sophomore campaigns of any player in the state, garnering 1<sup>st</sup> team all-conference honors at LB. His 6-3 220-pound frame makes him an appealing recruit, especially still being so young. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1165406' first='Matthew' last='Chepurchenko'] 6-3 180 26' DB Beamer WA</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The rangy 6-3 Safety had a big sophomore year, earning 3A NPSL all league accolades, while making 54 tackles, 4 INTs, and 15 PBU's. One of the best stat lines of any underclassmen in the NW. The kid can play. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1165415' first='Jayden' last='Woodland'] 6-1 165 26' DB Puyallup WA</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Woodland makes the transfer to Puyallup after earning 1<sup>st</sup> team all-league honors at 2A Fife last season. He had 40+ tackles with an INT last year and did well on the 7v7 circuit with Team Rise. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='427640' first='Corey' last='Bushaw'] 6-0 215 26' LB Skyview WA</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Look for Bushaw to be one of the GSHL's breakout players of the year this season. He led his team in tackles among sophomores with Skyview projecting as one of the top 4A teams in the state once again. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='726162' first='Jasonni' last='Prum'] 5-10 180 DB Decatur WA</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Prum has some of the best film out there. His ability to read and close quickly is impressive, also looking like one of top hitters coming up in the state. Look for him to be a 1<sup>st</sup> team all conference kid. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1165399' first='Tupu' last='Saleaumua'] 6-2 225 DE Lakes WA </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I could see Saleaumua making a significant jump up the rankings boarding in the years ahead. He showed flashes of dominance as a sophomore finishing with 38 tackles, 6 TfL's, and 3 sacks. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1041746' first='Luca' last='Moore'] 6-0 170 DB/ATH Anacortes WA </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Moore is relentless and plays with no fear. The all conference DB had an unreal sophomore campaign, making 56 tackles with 2 INTs and 10 PBU's. Everyone is aware of the Beaner's, but this kid can play as well. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1111004' first='Kaine' last='Aguon'] 5-10 170 DB River Ridge WA</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>We've talked about Aguon as one of the state's fastest rising young prospects. River Ridge went 0-9 on the season, with the sophomore being a huge bright spot and making 60 tackles with 3 INTs and 5 PBUs. </p>
