He had one of the highlight reel catches on the season in their win against Woodson, you can see the play below. Henriques is starting to attract a lot of attention from Division 1 coaches and Maryland has been high on him for over a year now. The Terps offered the sophomore before the 2025 season began and do not want him out of the DMV. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/CollinHenriques/status/1966866794138005889","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/CollinHenriques/status/1966866794138005889 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["853949"],"_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-68c80fd8c8f57"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tucker once again was flawless in Woodbridge dominating win over Dunbar, for the season he has yet to throw an interception. Throwing for 9 touchdowns already, [player_tooltip player_id='853949' first='Caleb' last='Tucker'] is showing what many of us have been saying for years, give him a chance and he will show you what he can do. In a potential playoff matchup this week versus North Stafford, Tucker must continue to take care of the football as this will be the Vikings toughest test to date.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["853848"],"_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-68c80fd8c8fa1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lake Braddock's workhorse running back [player_tooltip player_id='853848' first='Payton' last='Holmes'] is carrying the Bruins run game himself this fall.

In their dominating win over Heritage the junior had 3 rushing touchdowns, he looks faster from when I saw him in the spring too I wont lie. Curious to see what his 40 time would be now, him and his teammates are not worried about that though. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ethanlaf3/status/1967350836972986792","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/ethanlaf3/status/1967350836972986792 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1297928"],"_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-68c80fd8c9028"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1297928' first='Gray' last='Heilman'] had a ridiculous stat line in Western Albemarle's shutout over Harrisonburg.

He did a nice job matching up Mclean's tight ends and his high football IQ jumps out on tape.
