In their 2-0 start, Ferber has been a dominant quarterback. In a 42-6 win over Red Lion, Ferber was dynamic, throwing the ball. He was 9/11, 244 yards, and had a total of 5 touchdowns. 3 passing and 2 rushing touchdowns. Then, looking at his film, it matches up to his production. The best part I love about his film is his ability to get rid of the ball so quickly. He is very decisive when and where to throw the ball. He is also a good athlete who can run when he has the opportunity. Ferber is having a good year, and he should only improve throughout the season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://t.co/8HRcWlZR5G">https://t.co/8HRcWlZR5G</a> Week 2 win against red lion. 9/11 244 yards passing. 5 carries 30 yards 2 touchdowns rushing. 5 total touchdowns all in the first half! <a href="https://twitter.com/TorresJanz49893?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@TorresJanz49893</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/JuliusMadden4?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@JuliusMadden4</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/mildawg37?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@mildawg37</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/chase_bumsted?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@chase_bumsted</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/PAPrepVarsity?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@PAPrepVarsity</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/PaFootballNews?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@PaFootballNews</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/jonesburton?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@jonesburton</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/WY_BulldogsFB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@WY_BulldogsFB</a></p>&mdash; [player_tooltip player_id='1854864' first='Jensen' last='Ferber'] 2028 (@Jensen777481) <a href="https://twitter.com/Jensen777481/status/1961823140750758280?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 30, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1854866"],"_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-68ae594daf30b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1854866' first='Chase' last='Hartung'] has been balling through the 1st 2 weeks for Mifflin County, helping them start the season going 2-0. Through 2 weeks, he has 5 passing touchdowns and one rushing touchdown. The senior signal caller has been a steady force for his team as he has played well. His ability to make plays inside and outside the pocket is impressive. I am expecting him to continue to excel for Mifflin County. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1854869"],"_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-68ae594daf352"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1854869' first='Grady' last='Hope'] has been Big Spring's bell cow the 1st 2 weeks as a running back. His ability to run the ball between the tackles is a huge lift to the Big Spring offense. In week zero, he led them in rushing with 218 yards and two touchdowns. He followed that up with 113 yards this week as Big Spring improved to 2-0. Hope is a tough and physical running back who is hard to bring down. He also has good speed and can score from all over the field. Hope is a good player who should only improve going forward. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1854872"],"_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-68ae594daf393"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1854872' first='Beau' last='Fegely'] exploded onto the scene week 0 when he rushed for 224 yards and 4 touchdowns in a win over Kutztown. He is an explosive running back who can score anytime he touches the ball. His ability to make defenders miss and then run past defenders in the open field is excellent. He also has elite track speed and just glides by defenders.

As a punt returner, he already returned one for a touchdown in week one, where he showed his speed and his moves in the open field. Then, as a cornerback, Oriel is a good cover corner. He can cover wide receivers at a high rate. Then, when the ball is thrown in his way, he can knock down passes at a high rate. Oriel should continue to excel at a high level for Cedar Crest. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1854903"],"_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-68ae594daf414"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Through 2 weeks, [player_tooltip player_id='1854903' first='Ethan' last='Caldwell'] has been a steady force for Hempfield as a running back. He has rushed for 158 yards and 3 touchdowns as Hempfield has had two close, competitive games and needed Caldwell's running ability. Caldwell is a good physical running back who is hard to bring down. His ability to make defenders miss is excellent, and he always finishes runs with a physical rushing style. He should continue to play at a high level for Hempfield. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
