Prep Bowl Scouting Report: Kalamazoo United

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There were actually a good number of bright spots despite the loss at Ford Field on Saturday for KU! This was a team I wasn't really familiar with at all, and I came away surprised with the amount of really good players I saw from them, so below are some quick hitting notes on their impact players.
