<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1685742' first='Gage' last='Ramos'] will plug up the interior of the defensive line for his team with his pure size and strength. Forthwith, holding the A and B was the evident display that was put on for show for his fellow defensive lineman. Fighting with quick block sheds to get after the ball carrier is key for Ramons in his development moving forward. At the same time, Ramos will provide a push up the interior of the line with power.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The massive run stuffer in the middle of the defensive line for Iona Prep is [player_tooltip player_id='1146523' first='Geomar' last='Guzman']. Given that, he is a player that was a key component to goal line stands and short yardage situations where offensive linemen struggled to move him. Bulldozing over blocks with his pure strength was key to making a push up front of the QB pocket. Shortly, gaining more lateral quickness and agility will be huge for his development moving into the season.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Slippery edge rusher named [player_tooltip player_id='1568649' first='Antonio' last='Tebo'] that was able to chase the QB at an effective level. By and large, Tebo will use a rip move to get by OTs in a quick manner. Furthermore, the total quickness package to come off the LOS and get into the backfield at a fast rate was high. Balance against the lineman was key in getting around blocks thrown in his direction. Tebo does have the talent to match up and play in the 5, 4, or 3 techniques to attack.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Evan Truesdale is an LB that will showcase his athleticism all over the field, especially when chasing down ball carriers' sideline-to-sideline. That ability showed greatly against quick screens to receivers. Straightaway, Truesdale is a player that can line up in multiple spots, including out at the edge role, being able to rush the passer with his speed. Thereupon, he is not afraid to stick his nose into the LOS or assist his teammates in making difficult tackles.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1669474' first='Xavier' last='Penceal'] is a very young talent that is on the rise here for Moore Catholic. In particular, this is a CB that has a large volume of athletic traits that not only showed in his deep tracking ability but also in his offense as well. Undoubtedly, speed is a major benefactor for him at CB, as he was able to return balls the other way. Penceal also is a major factor on special teams as a returner.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">A twitchy CB that can line up in multiple positions, including boundary CB and in the slot. [player_tooltip player_id='1367178' first='Darren' last='Garrett'] is a willing tackler that will come upfield to make tackles on the opponents if the opportunity presents itself. As can be seen on tape, he is a very sticky CB that was able to show flashes in both man and zone concepts. Conversely, playing receivers quickly in tight coverages in goal line situations to knock down the ball or more would flash on film. This is a CB that has the ball skills that will translate at the next level.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The do-it-all FS who was all over the field for his defense in both the run and pass game. [player_tooltip player_id='1513234' first='Connor' last='Wolfson'] has a tremendous amount of athletic traits that pop off the tape. Being an FS that can play centerfield and also jump routes would show a lot. Undoubtedly, Wolfson is not afraid to lower his shoulder and deliver a big hit on the opposition if the opportunity presents itself. Wolfson is a true athlete that provides a huge life for his team, and programs should pay high attention to him.</p>
