He rushed for well over 200 yards and 3 scores in a blowout win over the Cardinals and is looking to be one of the top backs across California in the 2027 class after also coming off a huge off-season at multiple camp stops. He currently holds offers from Nevada, Sac State and Washington State. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1611430"],"_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-68b34997d5f9a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wafer looks to have picked up right where he left off last season and has had a explosive start to his Junior year as one of the top players in the central valley. In week 2 he had another stellar performance rushing for multiple touchdowns and going over the 100 yard marker on the ground. Buchanan had a very nice win over Kennedy and is looking to take another step forward in week 3 next Friday night. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1560132"],"_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-68b34997d5fe2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top signal callers across the central valley, Dippel had a stellar performance against a tough Grant Union team on Friday night and despite the loss put on a show in Sacramento. He threw for nearly 300 yards and 2 scores in a 42-26 loss to the SJS power. He is well on his way to picking up where he left off last season and is one of the top signal callers in the central valley. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1182997"],"_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-68b34997d6022"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Stevenson is a twitchy and elusive athlete that can make plays in the open field and is tough to take down in space. He can play anywhere in the backfield or in the slot, has sure hands and is a natural ball carrier. He had a very productive second week offensively, going for 4 total touchdowns and impacting the game in all three phases. He is currently committed to Nevada.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1612016"],"_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-68b34997d6062"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Torres is looking to be the next great up and coming quarterback in his senior year for the Pirates, and had a very strong opening showing at the helm of the offense. He showed he can process quickly, get the ball out into tight windows and has nice touch over the top vertically. He threw for over 300 yards and 3 touchdowns against a tough Granite Bay team. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
