He put up an impressive stat line, completing 21 of 31 passes for 340 yards and four touchdowns, showing his ability to drive the ball downfield and create scoring opportunities. Adragna demonstrated not only accuracy but also poise under pressure, moving the offense with confidence. His ability to connect on big plays and stuff the stat sheet showcased his potential as a high-impact player. Heading into the offseason, Adragna will be a player to watch closely as he builds on this standout performance and continues developing his game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1165593"],"_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-6733c52be05ea"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hermsen capped off a stellar season with another eye-catching performance, hauling in eight receptions for 143 yards, including a long catch of 72 yards. Known for his explosive ability to stretch defenses, Hermsen proved himself as a go-to threat for his team, ending the season with 1,300 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns. His speed and reliable hands were on full display, making him a tough matchup for defenders. With his dynamic playmaking ability, Hermsen is sure to attract attention from scouts as he prepares for the next phase of his football journey.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1280093"],"_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-6733c52be062d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Meyer turned heads all season as one of the top running backs in the state. Meyer's postseason effort was no exception, as he rushed for 160 yards on 19 carries, consistently breaking off chunks of yardage. He finished the season with an impressive 1,700 rushing yards, showing his ability to grind out tough yards and produce explosive plays. His consistency and playmaking skills make him a strong candidate for attention in the offseason. Meyer's combination of vision, power, and breakaway speed will have many eagerly watching his next steps.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["405003"],"_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-6735744fd8ebd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Donati made an impact in all phases of the game, tallying 153 kickoff return yards and setting his team up with crucial field position. On defense, he made his presence felt with eight solo tackles and two assists, showcasing his speed and tenacity. Donati flew to the ball, limiting opponents' big plays and keeping pressure on the offense. Although the season ended in a loss, Donati's versatility and relentless effort were a bright spot. His ability to impact both special teams and defense makes him an intriguing player heading into the offseason.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1554479"],"_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-6735744fd8f0d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brenner was a force on defense, leading his team with energy and grit. He recorded two solo tackles, ten assisted tackles, and added a fumble recovery. Brenner's instincts and quick reactions allowed him to make plays around the line of scrimmage, effectively shutting down the run game and providing critical stops. He even forced a quarterback hurry, showing his ability to apply pressure in multiple ways. With his all-around defensive skills and knack for being around the ball, Brenner has the potential to continue his rise and catch attention in the coming months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["504785"],"_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-6735744fd8f50"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Crowe delivered a standout performance, stuffing the stat sheet with eight solo tackles, six assisted tackles, five tackles for loss, and a sack. Crowe's relentless play was key in disrupting the opposing offense, as he flew around the field, stopping ball carriers behind the line and creating pressure. His presence and physicality made him a nightmare for blockers. Crowe's impact on the game will certainly catch the attention of scouts, and his skill set promises to make him a valuable asset as he looks toward playing at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1277937"],"_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-6735744fd8f8f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ward showed off his big-play potential with a 100-yard rushing performance on just nine carries, including a 76-yard touchdown run. Ward's speed and acceleration made him a constant threat in the open field, and his ability to break free added an explosive element to Overland's offense. As an underrated talent, Ward has shown he can make a difference with limited touches, and he's likely to draw interest heading into the offseason. With his burst and playmaking ability, Ward could be a hidden gem worth watching closely.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1290036"],"_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-6735744fd8fce"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ampofo played a vital role in his team's defensive efforts, recording eight solo tackles and three assists. Known for his quickness and physicality, Ampofo shut down receivers and was unafraid to step up in the run game, displaying a well-rounded skill set in coverage and support. Ampofo's agility and closing speed allowed him to make plays on the ball and prevent some of the big gains. As one of the top defensive backs, Ampofo has shown he can handle high-pressure situations, making him a player to keep an eye on this offseason.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
