<p>Here are five junior prospects who are currently flying under the radar!</p>

<p>After revisiting Jace's junior tape, it's clear he's due for a bump in the rankings at our next update. The Huskies' DB was everywhere for the Winterset defense as he led the team with 67.5 tackles, three TFLs, and an impressive six interceptions. Jace was very impressive as a playmaking centerfielder who could see the field extremely well and had the sideline-to-sideline range to attack from anywhere. Jace is also great at reading the QB's eyes and can disguise himself very well when lurking in his zone before sharply breaking on the ball and taking it the other way. Great job getting depth in coverage. Bellamy resembles an extra linebacker when defending the run, displaying the physicality and tackling ability to be an effective box safety. Big time riser!</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The '26 linebacker class is looking dangerous, and now we can add Algona's [player_tooltip player_id='1665965' first='Taevyn' last='Zinnel'] to the list. During his junior season, Zinnel racked up 44 tackles, nine TFLs, and four sacks at outside linebacker. Zinnel brings some juice off the edge with a quick first step and nice bend when rounding the corner. He is smart at playing his gaps and can fire through them with great explosiveness. Taevyn showed nice twitch and hand usage at the line of scrimmage when disengaging from blockers. Once he's locked in on his target, Taevyn attacks like a heat-seaking missile, showing impressive closing speed to track down ball carriers and shut down long gains. Effective floating out in coverage. Get this guy on campus asap!</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The Mustangs have quite a few interesting prospects to watch this upcoming season, including DB/WR [player_tooltip player_id='1619418' first='Mason' last='Cook']. Mason turned in a promising junior season as he posted 15 tackles, a TFL, and two interceptions. Cook has limited tape, but really impressed in the few clips available. The part of Mason's that stood out the most was his ball skills and aggressiveness when attacking the ball. He showed great timing when breaking on the ball and uses his hands very well to pick it or swat it away. Good change of direction and fluid hips allow him to stay in the opposing receiver's hip pocket throughout the rep. Lengthy frame at 6'0", 150 pounds, with room to continue adding mass to his frame. Lots of upside here!</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Boone OL [player_tooltip player_id='1665970' first='Trystyn' last='Heller'] is a new player to my radar, but one that I'm hoping to get more tape on before the next update. Trystyn flashed his upside as he held down the left tackle spots on the Toreadors' offensive line. Heller has projectable size at 6'2", 275 lbs with the physicality to back his frame. He looked impressive in both pass protection and as a run blocker. His strong anchor allows him to stonewall defenders trying to bull rush him while possessing the footwork to slide and mirror speedy rushers. As a run blocker, Trystyn shows the mean streak to get after defenders with his aggressiveness at the point of attack and motor to keep fighting through the whistle. Highly aware and reactive player.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Comet's RB [player_tooltip player_id='1615329' first='Deacon' last='Caspers'] is another prospect who could see a nice bump in the upcoming rankings update. Deacon quietly had a very productive junior season in which he carried the ball 269 times for 1,365 yards and 14 rushing touchdowns. At 5'11", 200 pounds proved to be a handful with his physical downhill running chipping away at defenses with every carry. His strong base allows him to remain upright as he fights for additional yardage after contact. Caspers isn't a super flashy runner, but he did show some solid wiggle when making defenders miss in tight spaces. Good job trusting his vision as he examines the field, looking for open lanes. Angry, tough runner who can bring an edge to your backfield. </p>
