He has led Melissa to a 3-1 record and his ability to make the big play with his arm gives his offense the chance to be explosive. He has excellent footwork, his pocket awareness enables him to evade pressure and make throws on the move. Noah has the arm talent to make every throw on the route tree and he has the arm strength to deliver strikes in heavy traffic. He will be a key offensive weapon as Melissa takes on Anna in a big district matchup.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/NoahSchuback/status/1836107495653216392","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/NoahSchuback/status/1836107495653216392 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1507608"],"_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-66f5fdde4759d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ebeke is the perfect combination speed and power. He runs with excellent pad level between the tackles, he has the power to break arm tackles and he has the burst to make a house call for six. Ebeke has excellent field vision, he sets up his blocks well and when gets a crease he explodes to the second level. He has rushed for 606 yards and 7 touchdowns, leading the DFW area in rushing in 5A through 4 weeks of play. Ben is a player to watch as W.T White heads into a big district game versus West Mesquite.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/BenEbeke/status/1760848850372235571","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/BenEbeke/status/1760848850372235571 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1507941"],"_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-66f5fdde475de"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fry has been a key cog in Panther Creek getting off to a 4-0 start this season. He is calm in the pocket, his footwork is clean and he has a quick release that enables him to make timely throws. Fry has the arm strength to deliver dimes into small passing windows and he has excellent touch on his deep ball. In a big win over Kennedale, Fry passed for 193 yards and 4 total touchdowns. With the a crucial matchup this week against Celina, Fry's stellar play will be key for Panther Creek. He gives them the ability to spread the ball around to their plethora of playmakers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Friscoisdsports/status/1839001835031417268","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/Friscoisdsports/status/1839001835031417268 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1507989"],"_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-66f5fdde47618"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lee has set the tone for the Tigers in the backfield this season. He is a downhill runner who has the power to break arm tackles, he has excellent pad level in the hole and when he gets in the open field he has the speed to take it to the house. Lee has a killer stiff arm and he punishes defenders with his power running in close quarters. Lancaster picked up it's first win of the season against Mesquite Horn and Lee's 147 yards and 5 touchdowns were a big reason the Tigers were successful. As they head into a pivotal game against Cedar Hill, look for Lee to get plenty of carries and he is a player to watch in the DFW area in week five.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1479208"],"_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-66f5fdde47651"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Janecek has been on fire for Lovejoy and he is a big reason they got a crucial win over Anna in week four. He has the arm talent to push the ball down field with excellent touch and he has the athleticism to make throws on the move on a rope outside the numbers. Jacob has superb pocket presence, his footwork his clean, which enables him to engage his lower half and this allows him to get extra torque on his throws. Janecek had a monster game to help Lovejoy get a big win versus Anna in week four. He passed for 311 yards with 6 touchdowns and rushed for 133 yards and 2 scores on the ground. With his stellar performance in week four, Janecek will be a player to watch for Lovejoy heading into week five. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/jj_janecek/status/1838709267483766944","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/jj_janecek/status/1838709267483766944 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
