He wasted no time in his 1<sup>st</sup>&nbsp;varsity start, throwing for 300+ yards and 4 TDs against 3A power O'Dea. You will also hear [player_tooltip player_id='984864' first='Jordan' last='Meas']' name often as Eastside Catholic's QB. He is a proven winner and will have the Crusaders listed as a state title favorite in the years ahead.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>RB [player_tooltip player_id='584953' first='Kanai' last='Kennedy'] could be the best back in the state. He will be a double digit D1 offer guy, being able to play at the highest level on either side of the ball. Everyone is familiar with the Ronquillo name with Marcus possibly be a legit factor early in his career at Yelm.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Heir Football standout [player_tooltip player_id='995881' first='JT' last='Williams'] could be a D1 kid in football or basketball, with Darwin Peters III able to play 4-5 different spots on the field, while excelling in basketball and track.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The WR's look to be legit with [player_tooltip player_id='1337935' first='Draven' last='Butler'] bringing a lot of excitement to the Spokane area. [player_tooltip player_id='985348' first='Jayce' last='Halasz'] could shatter GK records with Tuivaiave distributing the ball, and [player_tooltip player_id='1335368' first='Josiah' last='Laurence'] looks like a man amongst boys on film. The sky's the limit for him coming from a very athletic &amp; solid family.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lake Stevens continues to produce some of the top WR's in the NW and [player_tooltip player_id='984711' first='Maxten' last='Cook'] will be another one. Expect him to pose serious matchup problems for any undersized DB. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1003593' first='Tytan' last='McNeal'] will be ranked among the top TE's in America for his class, already with offers from Washington, Cal, Miami, and Colorado St.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Up front there are multiple big men who look to be legit interior lineman with [player_tooltip player_id='985353' first='Ofa' last='Taufalele'] already holding an offer from the Huskies. [player_tooltip player_id='984903' first='Calvin' last='Middendorf'] has a chance to play early for the 2x state champs, possessing ridiculous strength.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='985356' first='Solova'a' last='Steffany'] will likely hold multiple D1 offers by next year, looking like the most versatile lineman in the state for his class. 6-4 [player_tooltip player_id='1012776' first='Matthew' last='Curran'] played tackle for FSP but is super athletic and could be more of a TE at the next level. It's still a wait and see.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Last but not least [player_tooltip player_id='1338208' first='Marley' last='Malotumau'] who will be one of the state's strongest and best interior big men. He will project as more of a center/guard.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
