The standout interior defensive player had an exceptional season, recording 15 sacks, earning First-Team All-State honors, and helping lead his team to a 4A state championship. Kacey has been on a roll during the recruiting process, securing all seven of his offers this offseason. With his dominant performance on the field and growing list of suitors, Gilliam is undoubtedly one of the top defensive prospects to watch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["377619"],"_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-67e9462fdd0f6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Baker recently received an offer from Penn State, adding to his impressive list of offers, which includes Alabama, NC State, and Tennessee, among others. Just before receiving the Penn State offer, he released his top seven schools: Alabama, Virginia, NC State, Auburn, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Florida. The 6'5", 300+ pound prospect is expected to make an immediate impact as a freshman. With offers from major programs across the country, Baker's recruitment will be one to watch closely.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["402031"],"_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-67e9462fdd161"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brookins recently received his second Division I offer from Hampton University, following his first offer from the University of Richmond. He found a home at Pallotti as the starting quarterback, finishing the season with 1,289 yards and 14 touchdowns. Brookins possesses a strong arm and adds excellent touch to his deep ball, demonstrating the ability to make throws at every level of the field. After waiting for his opportunity, Brookins is now showcasing his talents and will be a player to watch closely next season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>nd </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["402005"],"_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-67e9462fdd1aa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Anderson had an impressive performance both on the field and in the offseason, earning himself an offer from Howard University. With his strong stats — 2 interceptions, 6 pass breakups, 17 tackles, and 3 tackles for loss — along with his excellent cornerback tackling and ability to stay in phase with receivers, it's no surprise that scouts took notice. The highlight at the Prepredzone Battle in the DMV 7-on-7 tournament was a great opportunity to showcase his skills, too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">If he continues this momentum into his senior season, it's likely that even more offers will come his way. It seems like he's on the right path to a promising collegiate career! Does Anderson have any particular schools or conferences he's hoping to hear from next, we'll be keeping an eye on him to find out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["711677"],"_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-67e9462fdd1e9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gamble had an outstanding junior season, finishing with an impressive 43 tackles, 4 interceptions, and 2 pass breakups. His strong performance has earned him a second scholarship offer from the University of New Hampshire, joining the offer he previously received from UMass. Gamble is no stranger to success, as his journey to becoming a playmaker began on Milford's junior varsity team, where he made an impact on both sides of the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Over the years, Gamble has developed into an exceptional safety. His physicality in the run game and powerful hits set him apart, while his range from midfield to the sideline in pass coverage makes it difficult for opposing quarterbacks to complete deep seam passes. As his recruitment continues to grow, Gamble's all-around skill set, and versatility could make him a sought-after defensive prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
