His deep ball accuracy is one of my favorite things about this prospect. He has the ability to put the right amount of touch on the ball to allow his receivers to make plays after the catch. Falzone is also a great runner of the football. Which is something that is very impressive to watch from a 6'5 | 200lb QB. I also want to mention Peyton led Nazareth to a district title as a Sophomore in the 2023 season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Peyton's Junior Season Stats:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2136 passing yds</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>23 passing TD's</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>743 Rushing yds</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>8 rushing TD's </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">I am very blessed and thankful to be named East Penn Conference (EPC) First Team Quarterback, East Penn Conference (EPC) Offensive Most Valuable Player, Northampton County First Team Quarterback, and Northampton County Offensive Most Valuable Player.

Especially with his brother [player_tooltip player_id='916004' first='Carter' last='Vassa'] catching passes from him! Cayden's ability to read defenses has helped him tremendously this past season. He understands where the ball needs to be and when, and also makes great reads in the read option/RPO game. The 18th ranked QB in the state has a chance to climb the rankings with a great off-season!

The 6'0 | 170lb prospect started this past season at St. Frances Academy (MD). Before the season started he decided to come home and play for Liberty. This ended up being a great decision for the 2026 prospect as he lead Liberty to it's best season in years. Due to the PIAA transfer eligibility rules he wasn't allowed to participate in the post-season. Don't let that take anything away from this kid though. His football IQ is extremely high. His decision making is attentive. Overall he is a great QB prospect that deserves more love on the recruiting side of things than he gets. Don't be surprised if "Tone" and that great group of 2026's leads Liberty to another great season in 2025! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Check out my Junior Season tape!! <a href="https://t.co/xWc6dwhk2G">https://t.co/xWc6dwhk2G</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachDaignault?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachDaignault</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/EdOBrienCFB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@EdOBrienCFB</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/PRZPAvic?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@PRZPAvic</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/bhaire13?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@bhaire13</a></p>&mdash; Antonio Fontanez 2026 QB (@AFontanez1_) <a href="https://twitter.com/AFontanez1_/status/1852363950622433413?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 1, 2024</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1155813"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-673fd21f44a6b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1155813' first='Gavin' last='Taff'] is a great leader out of Northampton High. This is another prospect that stepped into the bright spot as a Sophomore. Gavin throws a very accurate ball. He also improvises to his legs where he shows no fear running the ball. Taff is a prospect that will fight for every last yard. One thing I'd like to see more from Taff is zip on his deep ball. He has good pocket presence, and footwork. This is something you love to see from the young prospect. Throw measurable out the window. This is a great athlete with a 4.0 GPA that deserves a chance to play at the next level!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Check out my Mid Season Highlights!(Weeks 1-5)<br>Pass Yds: 546<br>Pass TD: 5<br>Rush Yards: 181<br>Rush TD: 2<a href="https://t.co/xMP6LgsY33">https://t.co/xMP6LgsY33</a><a href="https://twitter.com/dorn0829?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@dorn0829</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/Coach_Toman?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Coach_Toman</a></p>&mdash; [player_tooltip player_id='1155813' first='Gavin' last='Taff'] (@Gavin_Taff) <a href="https://twitter.com/Gavin_Taff/status/1847336878074138983?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 18, 2024</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
