<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1113094' first='Chase' last='McGee'] 25' 6-2 185 WR Camas </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>McGee has been one of the best players in the entire NW for the #1 Papermakers. Look for him to make a nice jump up the rankings board when updated. Thus far he has 61 catches for 1151 yards and 17 TDs on the season. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568765' first='Sawyer' last='Muehlbauer'] 25' 6-5 220 DE Skyview </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Definitely an underrated prospect. At 6-5 Muehlbauer was a disrupter all year on the defensive front, being named 1<sup>st</sup> team all GSHL. He finished the season with 86 tackles, 10 TFL's, and 4 sacks. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1136430' first='Zayne' last='Kuewa'] 25' 6-0 270 C/DL Skyline</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One of the top two-way lineman in Washington. Kuewa doesn't have prototypical size but from an overall talent standpoint there are few who were better. He earned 1st team all KingCo honors on both sides of the ball, while averaging 4.5 tackles per game over the last two seasons. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568766' first='Kingston' last='Fleming-Maile'] 25' 6-0 200 LB Bothell </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The team captain had an outstanding senior season, averaging 10+ tackles per game and earning 1st team all KingCo honors. He could do well at the next level. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568767' first='Dane' last='Aselin'] 25' 6-3 255 G Juanita </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Montana Tech got a good one in Aselin. He could play early for the NAIA school and do well with his 6'7" wingspan. On the year he earned 1st team all-conference honors. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1136391' first='Caden' last='Price'] 25' 6-2 300 G Bothell</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Price was key on the interior for a Bothell team that ran the ball well, and played a legit schedule, which included tough non-conference games against Kennedy Catholic and Arlington. He earned 2nd team all-league accolades. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568768' first='Eric' last='Battle Jr.'] 25' 6-0 170 CB North Creek </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Battle is versatile and possesses good size from his DB spot. On the season he garnered 1<sup>st</sup> team CB and 2nd team RB accolades within the conference. Thus far he has gone somewhat under the radar. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568769' first='Evan' last='Gaylord'] 25' 6-3 250 T Woodinville</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Gaylord was a big reason that [player_tooltip player_id='1136379' first='Levi' last='Grothen'] and POY [player_tooltip player_id='693693' first='Casey' last='Larson'] had the seasons that they did. The 6-3 tackle was a 2nd team all conference selection.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1476206' first='Kade' last='Haroldsen'] 25' 6-2 170 WR Eastlake</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Haroldsen did well opposite fellow standout [player_tooltip player_id='1136335' first='Bryson' last='Hodges']. The 6-2 WR averaged 12.8 yards per catch and finished with 4 TDs on the year. He was a 2nd team all league guy.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568770' first='Olly' last='Sharp'] 25' 5-11 195 WLB Bellevue</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Definitely don't sleep on this kid. Sharp has had a big senior year, racking up 2nd team all KingCo honors, while helping the Wolverine D hold 7 of their 11 opponents under 10 points. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568771' first='Micah' last='Seiffert'] 25' 5-7 180 RB Issaquah </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The runner up conference POY did his thing once again, with Issaquah competing all year. Seiffert had 1000+ all-purpose yards and 7 TDs, while averaging 6.4 yards per carry. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568772' first='Nolan' last='LeDoux'] 25' 6-2 260 G/C Bothell </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Bothell had one of the better O lines at the 4A level. Ledoux, [player_tooltip player_id='1136391' first='Caden' last='Price'], and Zach Foltz were all 1<sup>st</sup> team all-league guys. LeDoux is versatile and could be a collegiate center. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568773' first='Ryder' last='Jacobson'] 25' 6-0 175 WR Camas </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>No one comes close to McGee's #s but Jacobson has done a good job, catching 19 passes for 315 yards and 5 TD's on the year. He earned 2nd team all GSHL honors. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568774' first='Ryan' last='Criddle'] 25' 6-4 260 OL Camas </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Camas has legit size on their offensive front, with Criddle being a big-time contributor and a 2nd team all-league kid. The 6-4 senior has been consistent all year and a primary reason [player_tooltip player_id='1136399' first='Jake' last='Davidson'] has had plenty of time to throw the ball. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568775' first='Isaiah' last='Villanueva'] 25' 5-8 190 LB Juanita </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>From a recruitment standpoint Villanueva is undersized, but excelled on D being named a 1st team all-conference LB. He finished with 68 tackles and 5 TD's offensively. Expect numerous D3/NAIA's to inquire. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='945884' first='James' last='Poindexter'] 25' 6-0 185 QB Skyview</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The 1st team all-league QB did a great job in his first year as the starter. Skyview played one of the toughest schedules in the NW finishing 8-4 with losses to top teams such as Camas, Sumner, and West Linn OR. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1568777' first='Joe' last='McJunkin'] 25' 6-1 200 LB Juanita</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The standout baseball player could play multiple sports in college if he wanted to. McJunkin brings good size and overall athleticism to the table, racking up 1st team LB honors. <br></p>
