<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>NIXA</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1545183' first='Parker' last='Mann']</strong> S 2025 - 6'0" 185<br>- The big play safety has had a monster senior season and continued it in the quarterfinal win . It was my second time watching Mann from the sidelines this season and both times he dominated with his speed, physical play and tackling ability. Parker flew around the field making play after play and helping keep North's explosive offense from pulling away by making 16 total tackles.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Tobias Thompson</strong> LB 2026 - 5'11" 185<br>- The Eagles other defensive tackling machine was a fellow junior LB/S prospect in Thompson, who also read what the Bronco offense was doing and reacted quickly and forcefully showing good quickness and tackling ability. Tobias added 11 total tackles of his own. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1129733' first='Randy' last='Flint'] CB 2026 - 6'0' 170<br>- One of the top prospect in the Southwest part of the state is the speedy cornerback Flint. Randy is fast and showed he can run with anyone, and has good hips and closing ability to go with his quick hands and ball skills. He also plays the run tough and had 5 total tackles in the game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>LEE'S SUMMIT NORTH</strong> </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='285166' first='Ka'Mori' last='Moore'] DT 2025 - 6'2" 288<br>- The Iowa State commit saw his high school career come to an end after playing with the same tenacity and toughness that he has displayed since he was a freshman. His explosive first step, strength and motor required double and triple teams but Moore battled tough showing his ability to disrupt plays in the backfield. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kai Reed DE 2025 - 6'2" 250 <br>- The senior end played hard and got after the quarterback with his rushing ability and also played tough against the run going against the Eagles huge, talented offensive line he went against as they played physical ball control with their run game. Kai has good size and quickness with the ability to play inside or out along the defensive line.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1131048' first='Josiah' last='Robinson'] CB 2027 - 5'10" 170 <br>- The lockdown cornerback played up to his ability that has him one of the top prospects in his class and has been in the PRZ rankings since the pre-season. Josiah uses his 4.49 forty speed and 35" vertical athletic ability to his advantage and has the skills to match. He has advanced cover skills for his age and is physical off the line with the ability to turn and run with anybody. He also plays physical against the run. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
