<p><strong>FSP</strong>- [player_tooltip player_id='1655930' first='Ramzak' last='Fruean'] 6-4 215 OLB 26' Bethel </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Speaking of rising stocks, very few have made as big a jump as Fruean. The 6-4 athlete is one of the rare individuals who can play DE/LB or the Safety spot. Look for him to be even better in college. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>WMDB</strong>- [player_tooltip player_id='1589207' first='Jacobe' last='McClelland'] 26' CB Gonzaga Prep </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>McClelland is the real deal. Credit to PSU on being the first D1 to offer as he will have multiple options. Much like his teammate Docken, he was another athlete who killed it for the Wipe Me Down Boyz, after earning 1st team all-state honors as a junior. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>FSP</strong>- [player_tooltip player_id='284217' first='FA' last='Siale'] 6-4 250 DE 26' O'Dea</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One of the top players on the west coast for the 2026 class. Siale is a leader and a big reason O'Dea was able to go undefeated and win a state title. FSP has been huge for him and teammate [player_tooltip player_id='402788' first='David' last='Schwerzel'] who will project as one of the top D line pairs in the country. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>HEIR</strong>-[player_tooltip player_id='1188077' first='Tayven' last='Collins'] 5-11 180 Safety 27' Cascade Christian</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The 3* Safety was one of the most impressive players in the "Battle of the Brands" All Star game between FSP and HEIR. Collins was an early offer D1 guy and will continue to be one of HEIR's most important athletes. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>FSP</strong>- [player_tooltip player_id='1544388' first='Shaun' last='Griffith'] 6-3 245 DE 26' Sumner </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Griffith was one of only three underclassmen in all of Washington to earn 1<sup>st</sup> team all state honors at the 4A level, helping his team to the state title. His recent Montana offer was well deserved after being named the SPSL Defensive Lineman of the Year while making 74 tackles, with 9 TFLs and 5 sacks. He broke out at the FSP mini camp and hasn't looked back. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>FSP</strong>- [player_tooltip player_id='928074' first='Maurice' last='Williams'] 6-1 185 DB 27' Emerald Ridge </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The 3* CB has a stock that is rising quickly, racking up MVP DB honors at the Under Armour Camp in Salt Lake City a few weeks back. FSP has been huge for Williams from a training standpoint. He recently made the move to Emerald Ridge HS after two successful years at Yelm. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>WAR</strong>- [player_tooltip player_id='985355' first='Amosa' last='Masaniai'] 6-0 200 Safety/ATH 28' Emerald Ridge</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I'm a big fan of Masaniai who earned all-conference honors as a freshman. He was equally impressive on the 7v7 circuit and should be considered one of the best players in WA for his class. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>HEIR</strong>-<strong> Ta'u Mareko</strong> 6-1 215 LB 26' Lakes</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Mareko's commitment to Idaho a few weeks back is big for the Vandals. He had a few early offers from the likes of Boise St and Hawaii but liked what he saw in Moscow. He was a big time player for HEIR.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>FSP</strong>- <strong>Nick Norrah</strong> 6-3 200 DB 26' Bellevue </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>In his first year of football Norrah made 33 tackles with 5 INTs and 3 PBUs. The 3* DB is still relatively inexperienced making his upside that much higher. Look for him to add size and project as more of a LB at the next level. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>RISE</strong>- [player_tooltip player_id='1165415' first='Jayden' last='Woodland'] 6-1 180 DB/ATH 26' Puyallup </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One of the most versatile athletes in WA for his class. Woodland was an all-conference kid on both sides of the ball, racking up 400 receiving yards and 7 TDs with close to 70 tackles the last two seasons. He has been clutch for RISE. </p>
