The Georgetown-commit also rushed for another TD. Krause- the #2 QB in PRZ NV's 2025 rankings- is making a strong case as the top QB in his class with a total of 570+ yards and 10 passing TDs with 0 INTs through two games. He'll face his biggest test of the season so far when Coronado hosts one of the strong teams in Southern California- Lincoln (San Diego)- this Friday. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AidenKrause06/status/1830269798191972747","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/AidenKrause06/status/1830269798191972747 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["854252"],"_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-66d82fe7f3a8a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rios posted a massive effort on the ground rushing for 248 yards and 3 TDs on 16 carries in Reed's 39-36 loss to Twelve Bridges (CA). The 5'9"/190 junior showed his power and contact balance on several explosive gains and promising versatility in his skillset with his pass blocking and catching out of the backfield. He looks faster and more elusive than he did a season ago with noticeable burst at the LOS. Rios- the #2 RB in PRZ NV's 2026 rankings- has potential to take over the top spot at his position this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Bronwyn_Rios14/status/1829989359392804985","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/Bronwyn_Rios14/status/1829989359392804985 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /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='1584952' first='Zack' last='Jackson']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'2u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"190","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2411","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Douglas","_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-66d82fe7f3b83"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jackson rushed 11 times for 107 yards and 2 TDs on offense and totaled 11 tackles on defense in Douglas' 26-22 win over Spring Creek. The junior RB has totaled 100+ yards and 1+ TDs in Douglas' first three games since taking over for last year's state rushing leader. He's an athletic playmaker with a strong build (6'2"/190) and a promising pass-catching skillset (9 catches in three games). He's shown to be a physical runner with the ball in his hands with the ability to drive through tackles and rack up yards after contact. Jackson's putting together a breakout season early into his junior campaign.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ZackJackson007/status/1830455151230120234","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/ZackJackson007/status/1830455151230120234 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /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='1576334' first='Jake' last='Carsrud'] ","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"185","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2408","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Elko","_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-66d82fe7f3c59"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Carsrud rushed for 139 yards and 4 TDs on just 10 carries in Elko's 44-0 win over Melba (ID). The junior RB/LB showed promising speed, vision, and physicality in the most productive outing of his career thus far. Look for Carsrud to build off this performance and establish himself as a playmaker in Elko's run-heavy offense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17912445/66d5273a17498e1c92baef92' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d82fe7f3e93"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["803284"],"_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-66d82fe7f3f01"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Thatcher continued his scorching start throwing for 203 passing yards and 5 TDs, including 3 to WR [player_tooltip player_id='402175' first='Jayden' last='Williams'], in Arbor View's 49-7 victory over Legacy.
