The freshman quarterback threw three touchdowns, showing poise beyond his years. He consistently attacked down the field with accuracy and touch, proving he could challenge defenses deep. What stood out most was his command of the offense — especially in a two-minute drill where he kept everything on time and mistake-free. Tagliaferri looked like a complete quarterback, operating within the system but also making big plays when needed. This game was a clear statement about his preparation, polish, and high ceiling as Bergen Catholic's new leader under center. <br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Here are two of Bergen Catholic quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='412019' first='Trey' last='Tagliaferri']'s three first-half touchdown passes — one to [player_tooltip player_id='703169' first='Austin' last='Busso'] and another to [player_tooltip player_id='432324' first='Jamel' last='Hammary']. 🏈🔥<a href="https://twitter.com/BergenCatholic?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BergenCatholic</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/BergenCathFBall?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BergenCathFBall</a> <a href="https://t.co/GAfWRDKPzh">pic.twitter.com/GAfWRDKPzh</a></p>&mdash; Brian Tortella (@tortreports) <a href="https://twitter.com/tortreports/status/1966665058219327650?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 13, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["212385"],"_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-68c4b35810b08"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='212385' first='Dante' last='Kain'] proved why he's one of Bergen Catholic's most valuable weapons. He set the tone early with a physical running style, consistently churning out yards after contact and capping off a drive with a touchdown. His impact didn't stop in the backfield — split out as a wide receiver, Kain showed soft hands and the ability to create plays after the catch. That versatility made him a constant problem for Winslow's defense. While he often flies under the radar compared to Bergen's bigger names, Kain's performance showed he can do it all. If he keeps producing at this level, he has the tools to play the game for a long time beyond high school.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">[player_tooltip player_id='212385' first='Dante' last='Kain'] run (PAT good) <br><br>Bergen Catholic 7<br>Winslow 0<br><br>5:56 | first <a href="https://twitter.com/winslowsports?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@winslowsports</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/chillbelton?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@chillbelton</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/BergenCatholic?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BergenCatholic</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/BergenCathFBall?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BergenCathFBall</a> <a href="https://t.co/FYHgZR8YwB">pic.twitter.com/FYHgZR8YwB</a></p>&mdash; Brian Tortella (@tortreports) <a href="https://twitter.com/tortreports/status/1966626428574630052?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 12, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["284069"],"_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-68c4b35810ba4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='284069' first='Najee' last='Calhoun'] backed up his status as Prep Red Zone's top running back in the 2026 class.

Calhoun also flashed big-play ability, ripping off chunk runs that flipped field position. His patience and vision stood out, as he let blocks develop before bursting through lanes.

His thick frame allowed him to break tackles, while his elusiveness gave him extra yards after the catch. Even though Winslow struggled to generate consistent offense, Powell showed why he's one of their top weapons and a player defenses will have to account for all season.<br></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":"Amare Newell","_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":"5'11u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"175","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2495","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Bergen Catholic","_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-68c4b35810e71"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The biggest star of the night may have been defensive back Amare Newell.
