Week 0 Notable Performers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Breaking down some of the top performers from Nevada's week 0 action. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1112457"],"_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-66c3e44e60044"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Welbourne opened up his senior season with 3 catches for 3 TDs and added a rushing TD in Boulder City's 43-0 win over Valley. The 6'/165 wideout showed his explosiveness as a vertical threat extending over the top of the secondary to haul in two long TDs. He has strong ball skills, tracks the ball extremely well, and is highly competitive at the catch-point. He looks more developed athletically this season showing his speed and elusiveness after the catch on a 50+ yard catch-and-run off a quick slant. Welbourne- a 2025 watchlist WR- could find himself in the official rankings in the near future as he continues to be a primary playmaker for Boulder City. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/EastonWelbourne/status/1824889772780986867","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/EastonWelbourne/status/1824889772780986867 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["820692"],"_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-66c3e44e600ad"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Crawford threw for over 300 yards and 4 TDs in Legacy's season-opening 34-20 win over Basic. The senior QB showed great ball placement, composure in the pocket, and timing/processing operating the offense efficiently. He showed a live arm putting touch and velocity on the ball into tight windows and his ability to feel pressure and manipulate the pocket stood out in his strong performance. Crawford- who helped guide Legacy to a 5A D-III state title last season with over 2,200 yards and 22 TDs- looks poised to climb Nevada's 2025 QB rankings this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16524484/66c2a391a335415cab3d0ed4' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66c3e44e60232"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1216304"],"_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-66c3e44e6028e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Daniel picked up where he left off last season pacing SAL's offense with 16 rushes for 132 yards and a TD and caught 4 passes for 100 yards and another TD in their 24-23 loss to Virgin Valley last Friday. He's a versatile, all-purpose playmaker that showed his speed, vision, and slick elusiveness with the ball in his hands. He also contributed 7 tackles on defense from his CB spot. Daniel- who totaled over 1,200 yards on the ground as a sophomore- should continue to produce at a high level as the primary offensive weapon for SAL's offense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17765251/66c0d8c92b18cc7aef3db009' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66c3e44e602b2"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='1608611' first='Jordan' last='Thompson-Woods']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2028","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"165","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2410","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Legacy","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66c3e44e6035c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Thompson-Woods put his name on the PRZ 2028 radar with his strong performance in Legacy's season-opener. The freshman WR posted 2 TDs and 124 yards on just 3 catches in the Longhorns' 34-20 win over Basic. He showed explosive speed and the ability to make multiple defenders miss on a highlight-reel 70-yard catch-and-run and showed natural separation as vertical threat connecting with QB [player_tooltip player_id='820692' first='Aidan' last='Crawford'] on a deep TD catch. Thompson-Woods has established himself early on as a player to watch in Vegas' 2028 class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/_j2different/status/1825221072201118097","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/_j2different/status/1825221072201118097 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>More Top Performers: </strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Anthony Manuel</em> (DB / 2025 / Somerset Academy Loosee): </strong>7 total tackles, 3 TFLs, 2 sacks, 2 PBUs<strong> </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1566743' first='Ricky' last='Manning III']</em> (LB / 2025 / Faith Lutheran): </strong>14 tackles, 2 sacks, 4 TFLs<strong> </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1112218' first='Tanner' last='Vibabul']</em> (QB / 2026 / Las Vegas): </strong>4 total TDs (2 pass, 2 rush) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1544604' first='Vincent' last='Hales']</em> (QB / 2025 / Desert Oasis): </strong>359 total yards, 5 passing TDs </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1173839' first='Jett' last='Washington']</em> (ATH / 2026 / Bishop Gorman): </strong>2 INTs </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1571180' first='Shiloh' last='Wilson']</em> (DB / 2025 / Galena): </strong>3 INTs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Matt Ritenhouse</em> (ATH / 2025 / Galena):</strong> 4 catches, 80 yards, 2 receiving TDs; 9 tackles, 2 sacks, 2 TFLs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1545132' first='Alex' last='Rogers']</em> (QB / 2025 / Faith Lutheran): </strong>13/19, 232 passing yards, 2 TDs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
