PRZVA Team Previews: North Stafford Wolverines

<p><strong>Last Years Result: 9-3 (Fell to Colonial Forge in Region B Semi Finals)</strong></p>   <p>North Stafford is loaded and sure appears to be one of the favorites for State gold in Class 6. The Wolverines were flying through the regular season as the 2 seed in Region B. After a dramatic victory over Woodbridge their season came to an end when Colonial Forge came to town. Coach Marquez Hall has a ton of talent returning littered with college bound prospects. My bet is they will be highly ranked and their showdown with Battlefield next week could go a long way.</p>   <p><strong>Key Returnees:</strong> [player_tooltip player_id='1298226' first='Antwan' last='Barnes'], [player_tooltip player_id='1311634' first='Kenaz' last='Sullivan'], [player_tooltip player_id='1310494' first='Chase' last='Sullivan'], [player_tooltip player_id='853859' first='Ricky' last='Adkins'], [player_tooltip player_id='853780' first='Ontario' last='Washington'], [player_tooltip player_id='1311690' first='Nick' last='Galassi'] [player_tooltip player_id='1642065' first='Alon' last='Lester'] [player_tooltip player_id='1650610' first='Jaron' last='Owusu Ansah']</p>    <p class="text-gray-700">If you follow football locally in the Stafford region you probably already know [player_tooltip player_id='1311634' first='Kenaz' last='Sullivan'] is an elite talent. We honestly didn't do him proper justice with his 21st overall ranking in the 2027 group, looking back on it, their is not 20 players better than him in the state. The kid is special on both sides of the field, with over 20 Power 4 offers, Sullivan has many schools after him. Just a dynamic playmaker who had 7 receiving touchdowns and 3 interceptions last year. </p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/KenazSullivan/status/1856474849549402454 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">For a while I thought returning all conference star [player_tooltip player_id='1298226' first='Antwan' last='Barnes'] was enrolling into St. James Academy turns out I was wrong, Barnes is back with North Stafford! Just outside of our overall top 100, Barnes himself has a number Division 1 suitors. Another shutdown corner for the Wolverines defense, he looks like a Power 4 talent with his speed and ball skills.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/TheAntwanBarnes/status/1804262370065133823 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">I have said it before and I will say it again, [player_tooltip player_id='1310494' first='Chase' last='Sullivan'] is one of most overlooked prospects to come through our region in years. He is a beast under center and was first team all district a year ago. He sees the field well and is very accurate throwing for 23 touchdowns a season ago. On a team littered with Division 1 prospect, Sullivan deserves his opportunities too!</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/chase_sullivan1/status/1861471880114286641 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='853859' first='Ricky' last='Adkins'] has been a playmaker a couple of years now for the Wolverines, the track superstar is gaining momentum in his football recruiting too. Up to four offers since his junior year finished, Adkins is another prospect that could be overlooked on his loaded roster. Top flight speed and ball skills, he hauled in 8 touchdowns last fall. </p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/RickyAdkins_/status/1955049954432426298 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">Our 156th ranked prospect [player_tooltip player_id='853780' first='Ontario' last='Washington'] is back. He too picked up an offer from CNU last week and he should get more before week 1 kicks off next week. Another track & field star the Wolverines corner has a 4.4 GPA!</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/babyO07/status/1954947516577026174 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">Galassi is a baller at defensive end and he cracked our top 100 for the 2027 with his 92nd ranking. Love the way this dude plays, very smart football player who is just beginning his ascension. He was second team all district as a sophomore and he screams all region this fall. He is also a mean run blocker at tackle, with good pass protection. </p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Nick_Galassi/status/1864178890232746199 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1650610' first='Jaron' last='Owusu Ansah'] is a 6'4 tight end who has picked up several offers in recent weeks and rightfully so I might add. Up to 215 lbs. now Ansah was honorable mention all district last fall. He just picked up an offer from VMI and he has more Division 1 suitors quietly monitoring his progress. I could see him playing in the ACC a year from now and Syracuse has similar uniforms just saying....</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Trendstarjay/status/1862965229350486159 </div></figure>
