6A Oregon Mid Season All State- 1st & 2nd Team "O"

Here we will break down Oregon's top players midway through the season. Per usual if you play for one of the better teams in the state, you are much more likely to be selected as an all-state athlete. This is not a recruiting-based list.   Please note there will be extended 1st & 2nd team selections in lieu of 3rd team or honorable mention picks.          POY Candidates   1)[player_tooltip player_id='402416' first='Lamarcus' last='Bell'] 26' RB Lake Oswego   2)[player_tooltip player_id='285857' first='Nolan' last='Keeney'] 25' QB Tualatin   3)[player_tooltip player_id='406774' first='Baird' last='Gilroy'] 25' QB West Linn   4)[player_tooltip player_id='1103727' first='Wilson' last='Medina'] 25' RB Sherwood   5)[player_tooltip player_id='285868' first='Danny' last='Wideman'] 25' WR West Linn          The QB spot is definitely a bright spot within Oregon HS football. BYU commit [player_tooltip player_id='285857' first='Nolan' last='Keeney'] has been off the charts good for two straight seasons and could be your 6A state POY when all is said and done. 6-5 QB [player_tooltip player_id='406774' first='Baird' last='Gilroy'] has been outstanding on every front and will be the key if they are to win this year's title. The Junior Kurland out of Lake O has stepped up big recently, showing off that overall athleticism at 6-4. As mentioned his stock has skyrocketed.    The RB's are similar in talent with [player_tooltip player_id='402416' first='Lamarcus' last='Bell'] likely being your POY favorite as of right now. He is on a different level if we are talking speed and national recruitability. If we are referencing straight up numbers, Sherwood's Medina leads the pack. Thus far against good competition he has averaged over 10 yards per carry and close to 200 yards per game, rushing 89 times for 942 yards and 13 TDs. Oregon's breakout player of the year [player_tooltip player_id='769989' first='Viggo' last='Anderson'] is worth the price of admission just by himself. Get him in space and more times than not he's gonna take it to the crib.    On the receiving front, two ATH's who have been nothing short of phenomenal include [player_tooltip player_id='511878' first='D'Marieon' last='Gates'] and [player_tooltip player_id='770006' first='Joe' last='Stimpson']. Gates was one of the most impressive junior's in Oregon last year helping the Rams to the state title, with Stimpson backing up the hype from the off season. Him and [player_tooltip player_id='285867' first='Grant' last='Valley'] are one of the best combo's in the NW.   You can't say enough good things about [player_tooltip player_id='285868' first='Danny' last='Wideman']. The Oregon Ducks baseball commit seems to catch close to 10 balls every game, and for the 3rd year in a row will be a unanimous 1st team all TRL selection. Eastern Washington has to be stoked about getting a player like [player_tooltip player_id='1094734' first='Landon' last='Kelsey']. As good as he was last year, he has been even better this season, without POY Cru Newman. The other guy more than deserving of being a 1st team all-state selection is [player_tooltip player_id='152653' first='Zhaiel' last='Smith']. The Idaho commit had a quiet junior year at CC but has been insanely good so far this season.    We've talked about the TE's and how Oregon would rank nationally at the position. UW commit [player_tooltip player_id='285855' first='Baron' last='Naone'] has played extremely well after dominating on D last year. Central Catholic underclassmen [player_tooltip player_id='426922' first='Andreas' last='Nicolaidis'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1187089' first='Seager' last='Milholen'] have both been as good as advertised, garnering numerous division 1 offers.    From a line standpoint the state's top two ranked recruits as of right now are Washington commit [player_tooltip player_id='406759' first='Zac' last='Stascausky'] and Oregon St commit [player_tooltip player_id='406756' first='Jake' last='Normoyle']. West Linn teammates [player_tooltip player_id='285869' first='Ryan' last='Holmes'], [player_tooltip player_id='769924' first='Kalani' last='Ioapo'], and 6-6 tackle [player_tooltip player_id='1285759' first='Connor' last='Stuart'] have been beyond impressive as well.    Both of the Weiler kids deserve a lot of credit with [player_tooltip player_id='402412' first='Joe' last='Weiler'] doing an outstanding up front, with Lake O's [player_tooltip player_id='1525155' first='Jaden' last='Moore'] leading one of the most impressive lines in the region.          1ST TEAM OFFENSE       QB
