<p>26.[player_tooltip player_id='1704116' first='Prin' last='Fox'] 6-3 260 DL Cashmere<strong> COMMITTED: UNLV</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Playing small school Washington ball Fox was a 3* recruit with 15 offers but didn't have the name recognition of others. That said as UNLV has to be stoked with commitment over the likes Arizona, Boise St, and Wake Forest. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>27.[player_tooltip player_id='726174' first='Israel' last='Nabors'] 5-11 165 Sumner <strong>COMMITTED: Eastern Washington</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Nabors has had one of the best-off seasons of any player in WA continuing to up his stock. He earned 1<sup>st</sup> team all conference honors last year and was instrumental in helping his team win a state title. This is a big commitment for Eastern Washington as he could be one of the best in the Big Sky. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>28.[player_tooltip player_id='402796' first='Oteko' last='Mwamba'] 5-9 170 ATH Rainier Beach <strong>OFFERS (2) Nevada, Portland St</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>When healthy he's one of the most lethal athletes statewide. He picked up a few early offers and could do more of the same as a senior. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>29.[player_tooltip player_id='1589190' first='Garrett' last='Miller'] 6-4 225 LB Mead <strong>OFFERS (1) Portland St</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>We talked about Miller jumping up the rankings board and that's exactly what he's done, racking up an early offer from PSU. The GSL Defensive POY will likely land numerous other Big Sky and/or Mid Major offers before he's done. His 120 tackles and 5 sacks from last year will be tough to beat. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>30.[player_tooltip player_id='1704144' first='Ta'a' last='Malu'] 6-3 280 DE Annie Wright <strong>COMMITTED: Washington</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Malu made a quick and decisive decision recently committing to the Huskies over the likes of Utah, Arizona, and Boise St. From a recruitment standpoint he was one of the most sought-after players in the region at his position. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>31.[player_tooltip player_id='1589207' first='Jacobe' last='McClelland'] 5-11 160 CB Gonzaga Prep <strong>OFFERS (1) Portland St</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>McClelland rightfully made a big jump up the rankings board after an outstanding off season on the 7v7 circuit and 1st team all-conference campaign. Credit to Portland St on the early offer as I would consider him one of the most impressive players in the state. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>32.[player_tooltip player_id='1349889' first='Kingston' last='Kerkhoff'] 6-6 265 T Curtis <strong>COMMITTED: Idaho</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The 6-6 tackle is an intriguing prospect. He garnered early offers from the likes of Cal, Arizona St, and Michigan St but committed to Idaho which is interesting. Kerkhoff could be a huge steal for the Vandals. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>33.[player_tooltip player_id='1679403' first='Nick' last='Norrah'] 6-3 200 LB/SS Bellevue <strong>OFFERS (5) Nevada, Montana, Montana St</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The 3* defender is still raw but even more recruitable because of that. He had a phenomenal first year of football for the Wolverines making 33 tackles, with 5 INTs and 3 PBU's. Expect him to continue and offers. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>34.[player_tooltip player_id='402790' first='Greyson' last='Stevens'] 5-11 160 WR East Valley<strong> COMMITTED: Montana St</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Stevens is just a different type of athlete with his 10.9 speed. Credit to Montana St for getting on him early and acknowledging how special he is. His numbers the last two seasons were impressive accounting for 2700 yards and 32 TD's offensively, while standing out on D as a junior, and finishing with 26 tackles, 5 INTs, and 10 PBU's.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>35.[player_tooltip player_id='726154' first='Ta'u' last='Mareko'] 6-1 220 LB Lakes <strong>COMMITTED: Idaho</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Mareko broke out early in his career racking up offers from the likes of Washington and Boise St and finishing among the state leaders in tackles with 100+. Once again Idaho may have come up big with his commitment.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>36.[player_tooltip player_id='726175' first='Brody' last='Bocek'] 6-2 195 WR/DB Richland</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I think highly of Bocek and would expect Big Sky schools to go on him sooner than later. He was injured early in the season as a junior but still put up ridiculous numbers. In just 11 quarters he was named 1st team all-conference at WR for the second year in a row, also earning 2nd team DB accolades. His shortened season included 21 catches for 319 yards and 6 TDs, with 5 kick returns for 250 yards and 2 touchdowns, in only 3 games. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>37.[player_tooltip player_id='726155' first='Tristan' last='Baker'] 6-1 185 ATH Lakes <strong>COMMITTED: Idaho</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>You can't argue with the numbers and how efficient he's been for his career at Lakes. The Vandals continue to load up on WA talent with Baker totaling 773 yards and 7 TD's while making 43 tackles last season. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>38.[player_tooltip player_id='1542213' first='Jerry' last='Allen'] 6-2 180 CB Rogers <strong>COMMITTED: Idaho</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Allen is a big corner who could play early for the Vandals. He was a state leader in INTs last season and significantly upped his stock on the 7v7 circuit. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>39.[player_tooltip player_id='1165423' first='Brady' last='Jay'] 6-1 185 QB Moses Lake <strong>COMMITTED: Montana</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Big 9 POY for the 2nd year in a row made a good decision committing to the Grizz. Over the last two seasons he has put up one of the best stat lines anywhere in the West, passing for 6,434 yards and 93 TD's. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>40.[player_tooltip player_id='1165354' first='Elijah' last='Muliufi'] 6-6 250 TE Bethel <strong>COMMITTED: San Diego St </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This is still a wait and see but Muliufi's 6-6 frame is appealing from a recruitment standpoint. He committed to SDSU over Nevada with the 3* having an unlimited ceiling. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>41.[player_tooltip player_id='1165376' first='Jonah' last='Keller'] 6-0 180 RB Gonzaga Prep</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I think Keller is the real deal and could help lead Gonzaga Prep to a state championship. He will be a GSL POY favorite next season after earning 1st team all-league accolades at RB the last two years.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>42.[player_tooltip player_id='1691667' first='Sylen' last='Kiesel-Kauhane'] 6-4 215 OLB Richland <strong>OFFERS(2) Idaho, Portland St</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Definitely a kid to keep an eye on after breaking out at the NW Showcase and earning MVP honors. Kiesel-Kauhane brings legit versatility to the table as a 3-sport athlete, while accounting for 98 tackles and 6 TFL's as a junior. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>43. [player_tooltip player_id='1544388' first='Shaun' last='Griffith'] 6-3 245 DE/OLB Sumner <strong>OFFERS (1) Montana</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The SPSL Defensive Lineman of the Year helped his team to a state title as a junior, finishing with 74 tackles, 9 TFL's, and 5 sacks. I could see most of the Big Sky's offering with maybe a few mid majors in the coming months. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>44.[player_tooltip player_id='1582216' first='Cade' last='Boehl'] 6-4 185 ATH Eastside Catholic</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The 6-4 CB/athlete is a big-time sleeper in my opinion. It's been quiet on the recruiting front but I would expect a big senior year after earning 2nd team all-conference honors in the secondary last season. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>45.[player_tooltip player_id='1704121' first='Sam' last='Davidson'] 6-7 250 DL Seattle Prep <strong>COMMITTED: Nevada</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Davidson was only able to play in 3 games as a junior due to a stress fracture in his back, but put incredibly impressive numbers finishing with 27 tackles, 11 TFL's, and 3 sacks. The stats and his 6-7 frame speak to his potential. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>46.[player_tooltip player_id='1582212' first='Giulio' last='Banchero'] 6-2 175 WR O'Dea <strong>COMMITTED: Eastern Washington</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Banchero put up some good numbers, earning 1st team all-league honors while helping O'Dea to the 3A state title. On the year he caught 22 passes for 400 yards and 9 TDs. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>47.[player_tooltip player_id='726169' first='Nate' last='Donavan'] 6-2 190 QB Sumner <strong>OFFERS (1) Nevada</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Donavan was one of the most impressive kids in WA last season passing for 2900 yards and 28 TDs, while earning 1st team all-league honors and leading his team to the state title. That said as it hasn't translated on the recruiting front yet. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>48.[player_tooltip player_id='1589232' first='Jake' last='Young'] 6-3 180 DB Central Valley <strong>OFFERS (1) Portland St</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Young is a big 6-3 corner who earned 1st team all GSL honors. Give PSU credit for getting on these talented Spokane kids early. He will be a conference POY candidate. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>49.[player_tooltip player_id='1679405' first='Josiah' last='West'] 6-6 295 T Prosser <strong>COMMITTED: Montana</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>West broke out this off-season garnering offers from top Big Sky programs and Air Force. The Grizzlies have done a phenomenal job of landing WA's top small school talent over the years, with this commitment being no exception. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>50.[player_tooltip player_id='748214' first='Xander' last='W Shaw'] 6-4 240 DE Steilacoom <strong>COMMITTED: Air Force</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Credit to Shaw who made his intentions known, committing to the Air Force Academy just last week. The 1<sup>st</sup> team all conference DE will go down as one of the best players ever to come out of Steilacoom, finishing last year with 57 tackles, 27 tackles for loss, and 5 sacks. </p>
