Plug N Play GOTW: Fremont v Papillion-LaVista Standouts

At this point in the season, playoff seeding is at the top of most team's minds. Fremont came in riding high, winning two of the last three games, including a big victory over Creighton Prep, while the Monarchs had lost two in a row and were looking to hit the reset button into the season's final games. I will cover the stars that helped light up the night sky, as the Monarchs not only reset but rebooted their season.    <a href="https://x.com/IsaacPamaran">https://x.com/IsaacPamaran</a>   A versatile weapon, Pamaran hauled in 7 catches for 186 yards and 2 touchdowns, both over 40 yards, showcasing his ability to cut on a dime and break tackles for big YAC gains. His impact extends to defense as a good cover safety, adding 3 tackles, and he's a constant threat in the return game. Despite teams game-planning for him, he remains unstoppable, consistently finding ways to get the ball and impacting the game in multiple ways. Pamaran's athleticism and speed are game-changers, making him a player that coaches will salivate at his potential.   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/WiredAxcess/status/1847618561293865018 </div></figure>     <a href="https://x.com/Owen14Bogacz">https://x.com/Owen14Bogacz</a>   Another multi-use weapon, Bogacz is a speedy, tough-as-nails football player who can line up anywhere—whether it's taking handoffs, playing wide receiver, or returning punts. He totaled 66 yards and a touchdown, while adding a couple of tackles, including one for a loss, and delivered a crowd-stirring big hit on a wide receiver. Like Pamaran, he impacts the game in multiple ways, bringing grit and toughness that help define his team's identity. Bogacz is a special athlete that schools should definitely keep on their radar.   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/BleacherPreach4/status/1847068953996042284 </div></figure>     <a href="https://x.com/KaleJohnson2006">https://x.com/KaleJohnson2006</a>   An athletic linebacker with fantastic measurables, Johnson stretches sideline to sideline with impressive speed. His footwork and strength make him a key contributor in the running game, finishing with 8 tackles, 2 for a loss, and an interception that nearly turned into a touchdown. As a three-down linebacker, Johnson's versatile enough to tackle in the gaps or hold his own in coverage. His all-around skillset will be a valuable commodity at the next level.      <a href="https://x.com/hudsondjennings">https://x.com/hudsondjennings</a>   On a tough night for the Tigers, Jennings showcased flashes of his potential. He demonstrated his speed and vision on a 23-yard touchdown run and showed concentration and adaptability on a 24-yard reception that was tipped in the air. With good size, speed, and physical attributes that are still developing, Jennings is a player to watch closely in the coming years.   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/BleacherPreach4/status/1847073669623042335 </div></figure>     <a href="https://x.com/EylerBrooks">https://x.com/EylerBrooks</a>   Under the radar for years in the metro, Eyler runs with heart and determination. He's adept at shuffling his feet and making quick cuts behind the offensive line, excelling between the tackles but also capable of using his speed to break long runs. Against a tough Monarch defense, he ran for 33 yards and contributed on defense with 4 tackles and an interception. Eyler is a player who gives it all on the field, with a well-rounded skillset that will make him ready to contribute at the next level from day one.
