Central/Southwest Ohio Studs

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Central Ohio, particularly the Columbus area, features several up-and-coming prospects who will undoubtedly shine this fall in the most talent-rich area of the Buckeye State. Here are some non-household names you don't know about yet, but players who had a great Week 3 and are putting themselves on the map:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1343636"],"_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-68bee0ffcf877"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tippecanoe Valley's quarterback, and Strong's teammate, [player_tooltip player_id='1343636' first='Larkin' last='Thomas'] had an outstanding game: he finished 17/21 for 275 yards passing, five passing touchdowns and one rushing touchdown en route to the big win. Last season, he finished with 2,679 total passing yards and 38 touchdowns, and it looks like this fall is on track for a repeat performance. Not only is Thomas very accurate, he is also a good dual-threat who can run and make plays with his legs. He does not currently hold any offers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1845589"],"_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-68bee0ffcf8ed"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1845589' first='Carter' last='Bellisari'] is continuing to prove himself as one of the better prospects in central Ohio as the defending state champions roll on to a 3-0 record, this time with a decisive 38-0 win over Westerville North. Bellisari is a good route runner and comes off the LOS with good burst and acceleration. In just the first half last week, he recorded 4 catches for 120 yards receiving and one touchdown.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1695789"],"_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-68bee0ffcf942"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In a victory over Fairborn, wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id='1695789' first='Will' last='Strong'] put together an outstanding performance.
