<p>As we approach the season, realignment is at the top of my mind. For the first time, North Carolina is going to an 8A system, which will further stratify the schools. So, over the next couple of months, I'm going through classifications to highlight the players fans will need to know.</p>

<p>First up, the 1A/2A quarterbacks. Don't let the size of their schools fool you, these guys can play.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Richardson is one of the most accurate quarterbacks in the state, regardless of class, as he completed over 70% of his passes last season, while being unafraid to push the ball down the field. Entering his second season as a full-time starter, Richardson has our attention, and he's a candidate to move up the Prep Redzone rankings this fall.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">An extremely athletic player, Johnson has played mostly quarterback in the past, but has participated in college camps at receiver, putting up impressive testing numbers. Will he continue to play the position he's always manned, or move to receiver, where his athleticism and speed shine? Either way, he's a guy to know at the 2A level.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">We've seen Sigler several times at various camps this offseason and he looks better than we've ever seen him. He has some athleticism and rushing ability, and the Hopewell transfer has the talent to really shine. He can spin it, and I'm interested to see how that translates to Community School.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">While football isn't his primary sport, Ammons is a really impressive small-school player. He completed 58% of his passes as a freshman, adding nearly 250 yards on the ground and five touchdowns. Defensively, he was just as impressive, forcing three turnovers and running an interception back for a touchdown.</p>
