He got off to a hot start taking back the opening kickoff back for a touchdown and exploded offensively from there. He ended the day with 10 tackles, 1 sack, 300 all-purpose yards and 5 scores in a small school battle against Woodland Christian which the Mustangs narrowly won. Look for Caturegli to have another big performance next Friday night in a North Bay showdown against American Canyon. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["302479"],"_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-68b61182dfc73"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Blair is one of the best available signal callers across the Norcal region and got off to a quick start on Friday night against Castro Valley and threw for over 270 yards and 3 scores on the night. He is one of the more accurate and strong armed throwers we have seen so far this year and will be a very nice late steal for a college program once he finishes his prep career. Look for Miramonte to be a name to note as we move through the season as Blair has plenty of weapons on the outside to make a post-season push in the NCS playoffs. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Cole Dawes","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2409","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"San Ramon Valley ","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68b61182dfd2a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dawes is looking to become the next up and coming NCS signal caller in the 2027 class and has a strong arm, deep ball accuracy and can extend plays with his legs while keeping his eyes downfield and fitting the ball into tight windows. Against a very formidable opponent in El Cerrito, he threw for over 250 yards and 2 scores in a big time 20-14 win over El Cerrito and should have a breakout season this Fall and draw plenty of college attention next off-season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ColeDawes2027/status/1962380191294165121","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/ColeDawes2027/status/1962380191294165121 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1601773"],"_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-68b61182dfd7e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lortie is becoming one of the top passers available across the north coast section and put up stellar numbers in week one of the season against Castro Valley. He gets the ball out quick and on time, shows he can buy time with his legs and keeps his eyes downfield when needed. He exploded on Friday night throwing for over 330 yards and 4 total TD's while completing over 70% of his passes. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Matteo_lortie18/status/1962208271437357232","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Matteo_lortie18/status/1962208271437357232 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1686142"],"_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-68b61182dfdca"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Burford is committed to Air Force and one of the top two-way players in northern California. He is a violent and physical runner that gets downhill quickly and has elite contact balance, natural forward lean and leg drive through contact to gain the tough yards inside. He had another stellar night on Friday rushing for 270+ yards and 4 scores while doubling duties on both sides of the ball and flying around and seemingly always around the ball from his linebacker position. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/BurfordWes12/status/1916697831689371840","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/BurfordWes12/status/1916697831689371840 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
