With the rankings being updated shortly for each class, we will take a look at a few of Washington's top athletes this season. These individuals can be expected to make a nice jump up the rankings board. Here we will analyze the 4A SPSL/NPSL with more updates from other conferences coming soon.            [player_tooltip player_id='1576595' first='Taylor' last='Rebar'] 25' SS/ATH 5-11 190 Sumner     Rebar was instrumental in helping Sumner to the state title, garnering 4A SPSL Defensive POY honors in the process. Look for him to be a small school standout collegiately.    [player_tooltip player_id='1576598' first='Logan' last='Lipscomb'] 25' WR/DB 6-4 215 Emerald Ridge     Lipscomb was one of the most impressive two-way players in the state this past season. The 6-4 baseball commit brings a lot to the table on the football field, being one of the only players at the 4A level to earn 1st team all-conference accolades on both sides of the ball.    [player_tooltip player_id='1576599' first='Josiah' last='Taijeron'] 25' RB 5-9 195 Rogers    Taijeron kept Rogers in ball games much of the season. On the year he accounted for 1,511 rushing & receiving yards to go with 12 TDs. He was the only athlete on his team to earn 1st team all-conference accolades, while averaging 7 yards per carry.    [player_tooltip player_id='1576601' first='Tsiyown' last='Lowery'] 25' DB 6-1 185 Tahoma    Lowery was one of the better 2025 CBs in WA, earning 1st team honors defensively and 2nd team accolades at WR. He has an offer from Central Washington with the potential of being an FCS kid.    Forrest Carter 25' T 6-6 290 Olympia   Montana has traditionally been one of the top FCS programs in the country and got a good one with Carter's commitment. He went somewhat under the radar, even after a dominant 1st team All SPSL season.    [player_tooltip player_id='1576605' first='Caleb' last='Braithwaite'] 25' LB 6-0 210 Graham Kapowsin   GK has produced some of the state's top talent over the years with Braithwaite projecting as a solid small school talent. The 1st team all SPSL-South LB finished with 68 tackles and 4 TDs offensively.    [player_tooltip player_id='928105' first='Shane' last='Creegan'] 25' T 6-5 290 Yelm   Creegan will be joining the Air Force and not pursuing a football career, but if anything changes he would be a solid addition at the FCS/D2 level. He was more than deserving of his 1st team all-league accolades.    [player_tooltip player_id='1576606' first='Nick' last='Neil'] 25' WR 5-11 170 Puyallup    One of the more underrated WR's in Washington. Neil was clutch each of the last two seasons, earning 1st team all-league honors and going for 800 all-purpose yards with 6 TDs as a senior.    [player_tooltip player_id='1576610' first='Kaden' last='Thompson'] 25' 6-4 285 T Emerald Ridge   Definitely and intriguing prospect with his ability to play on either side of the ball. The 1st team all-conference tackle didn't give up a sack and impressed on D with 35 tackles and 5 sacks.     [player_tooltip player_id='1576613' first='Mason' last='Thayer'] 25' LB 5-10 185 LB Sumner    Sumner won a state title because of guys like Thayer and [player_tooltip player_id='1576595' first='Taylor' last='Rebar']. Both don't have prototypical size for their position but were always two of the best players on the field, hence the 1st team 4A SPSL accolades.    [player_tooltip player_id='1576616' first='Harper' last='Hejtmanek'] 25' WR 6-0 195 Olympia    Hejtmanek put up some ridiculous numbers as a senior, catching 65 passes for 1,159 yards and 15 total TDs. He was definitely deserving of the 1st team all conference honors.   [player_tooltip player_id='1576617' first='Henry' last='Trost'] 25' DL 6-0 220 Tahoma   Trost has done extremely well the last two years as an undersized D lineman, earning back-to-back 1st team all NPSL honors. He accounted for 57 tackles, 11 tackles for loss, and 4 sacks as a senior.    [player_tooltip player_id='1576620' first='Garrett' last='Atwood'] 25' LB 5-11 200 Tahoma   Look for Atwood to do well as a D3/NAIA backer. He was a unanimous 1st team all-league selection, helping the Bears finish 6-1 in their district before falling to Lake Stevens in the playoffs.
