2024 Pre-Season Team Preview: Boston College High School

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>School Outlook:</strong> Boston College High School Football has a rich tradition of success. BC High is a member of the MIAA and compete in the Catholic Conference. Although the Eagles have a new head coach in Paul Zukauskas, I expect them to have continued success.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Head Coach: </strong>Paul Zukauskas (first year)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Class of 2025 Notable Players</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["385309"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66cdc675e8484"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Carter is one of the highest ranked 2025 QBs in New England. He returns as the starting QB for BC coming off a productive junior campaign throwing for over 2,500 yards and 25 touchdowns. Carter has worked hard throughout the off-season improving his QB play with M2 QB Academy. Carter flashes mobility and speed. He was clocked at 4.69 in the 40 yard dash. The William &amp; Mary commit should have a huge 2024 season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16325096/6564efeeab9286098c669f42' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66cdc675e8629"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["385363"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66cdc675e867a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Conrad lines up mostly as an inside WR/TE. He is fearless and will take on contact while catching the ball in the middle of the field. Babka will be a centerpiece and one of the top offensive weapons. He is a crisp route runner and shows consistent, reliable hands. He does a good job of finding the open holes in coverage. Conrad is a tough football player that you can count on in big situations. Conrad will continue his football career at the Bowdoin College.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16310606/6522cc441762281320e034f9' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66cdc675e86a6"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["385361"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66cdc675e86e9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sirewl is a huge part of the Eagles defense. His athleticism allows him to play all over the field. He plays mostly as an outside linebacker. Sirewl can matchup with inside WR's in pass coverage. He can also play in the box and get downhill to be a player in the run game. Sirewl plays with great effort and energy. Cox will be a leader on the defensive side.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16518386/656a02d1578d3002a8e529a3' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66cdc675e870a"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["995447"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66cdc675e8749"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I first got my eyes on Kaleb at the PRZ New England Showcase. His athleticism in the testing drills stood out amongst the group of OL/DL. Kaleb showed a competitive drive and was a prospect who wanted to matchup against the best. Because of his size and mobility, he is a versatility player that will play a lot of snaps for the Eagles this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/15468550/65445487d45e7c12cc9a10d3' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66cdc675e876a"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["385254"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66cdc675e87b4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Elijah plays right tackle for BC. He will be the leader and tone setter for this OL group. At 6'3 he has good size. Elijah is an athletic tackle who can pass block and run block with success. He does a nice job of setting a wide base and uses his hands to control the defender. The Eagles should be a run-heavy offense behind Elijah.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["385366"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66cdc675e8808"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brenden is a key returner for the Eagles. Brenden will earn snaps on both the offense, defense and special teams. At RB, he does a great job of getting north and finding his nose. He hits the hole with purpose and breaks many tackles. At safety, he flies around and plays fast. Brenden is a reliable tackler in space and a trusted DB for what should be a strong defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16325584/65501a394ba7a803e4cc4804' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66cdc675e882a"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Notable Watch List Prospects</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025- [player_tooltip player_id='734715' first='Jackson' last='Richard']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025- [player_tooltip player_id='616618' first='Michael' last='Smith']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2026- [player_tooltip player_id='801125' first='Joseph' last='McCarthy']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2026- [player_tooltip player_id='1090638' first='Josh' last='Simms']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2028- [player_tooltip player_id='1257823' first='CJ' last='Taylor']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2028- [player_tooltip player_id='1329738' first='Connor' last='Larnard']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
