<!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>2025 [player_tooltip player_id='1426884' first='Ty' last='Watkins'] (Mount Healthy) 6'4 225-</strong> The senior defensive end for the Owls has been a playmaker for the Owl's defensive front this season. Watkins (pictured above) has 2 sacks and 7 tackles for a loss. At 6'4 225 Watkins possesses a good combination of athleticism and size. He has the strength to set the edge in the run game, and he can also get to the QB.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>2025 [player_tooltip player_id='1582414' first='Caden' last='Walker'] (Kings) 6'5 235-</strong> The defensive end for the Knights has 18 tackles on the season with 1 sack and 5.5 TFL's. Walker possesses a good frame to continue to build on. Athletically he shows a good bull rush and lateral movement to get into the gap. He has the speed to run plays down from the backside.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>2025 Alan Dulin (Wyoming) 6'3 190-</strong> Dulin has put up monster numbers for the Cowboys this season. He's sacked opposing quarterbacks 5 times and also has 4.5 TFL's. He lines up at defensive end for Wyoming. Dulin does a good job of keeping plays in front of him and can get downhill and run plays down when needed.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>2026 [player_tooltip player_id='402338' first='Javion' last='Lewis'] (Wayne) 6'0 215-</strong> Lewis has 3 sacks and 4 TFL's on the season to go with 19 tackles through 3 weeks. Lewis is explosive and athletic off of the edge. His ability to change direction and bend makes him very difficult to contain.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>2025 [player_tooltip player_id='1582190' first='Parker' last='Elam'] (Lakota East) 6'5 220-</strong> Elam has 3 sacks, 4 TFL's, and 15 tackles in 2024 for the Thunderhawks. Elam possesses a nice combination of length and athleticism. He runs well and looks good rushing the passer out of the standup.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
