WL to Ranked, Projecting Ranking Boosts for PA 2026 Prospects

6'0, 160 pounds. Caught my attention after a productive two-way performance against Martin Luther King. WR/Safety prospect.   Posted a six-minute junior tape back in November, unsure how I missed his release on Hudl, as this is more than enough to have had him on our ranks for months on end. James has finally caught my attention, thanks to solid single-game performances against Parkland and Martin Luther King. James caught a touchdown in the game against Parkland, a 30-yard vertical shot that had James stemming to beat a corner who aligned eight yards off the ball pre-snap. Winning deep against off-coverage against a talented secondary proves James deserves a spot on our WR rankings, again, this coupled with his Junior tape. Reps against MLK cement this notion. Two interceptions from his safety position, another touchdown through the air, this is a college-worthy player hidden in the Philadelphia Public League.     6'3, 200 pounds. Likely a WR/TE at the next level, yet is stepping in at Quarterback for Boyertown Area in a time of need. Also played some QB for BA last Fall, if my memory serves me right. Henley is also putting up quality work at DB through three games, will get into his tape a bit later.   Posted full junior highlights back in August of this year, this being the reason for his placement on our watch list for an extended period of time. Henley has now consistently pumped out tape showcasing work against talented programs, Avon Grove, Downingtown East, and Exeter Township included. First rep on his first-three has him pulling from his ball carrier to follow to pulling blockers on what would lead to a 65+ yard TD run from the QB position, immediately proving his athleticism and scoring ability from far out. A ton of QB keepers witnessed throughout his tape, both showing his overall toughness as well as his ability to read key defenders in these options sets. A bit tougher to bring down in open space than I would have imagined. Opponents will have to respect Henley's ability to throw downfield, albeit not his strong suit. Again, this is a WR/TE at the next level, one whose name I have no problem sharing with local DIIs and DIIIs. Ranking incoming.   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/TilmanHenley/status/1964842772957114843 </div></figure>     6'3, 235 pounds. Self-reports a 2.8 GPA. Some schools would hope that number would be higher, yet that hasn't stopped General McLane's [player_tooltip player_id='1881888' first='Ryan' last='Benoit'] from earning roster spots at Thiel College, and Saint Vincent College. Likely a future collegiate DL, yet has experience at tackle at the HS level. Is a track and field participant at GM as well, should help boost his recruitment.   Hudl still has him at 6'2, 210. It's evident Benoit is still growing, especially in terms of weight, which is a positive. Hardly any tape to uncover from his junior/sophomore campaigns, which explains why he is currently on our watch list. Based on his Oil City, Harbor Creek, and Dubois tapes, I can see local D3s flirting with recruiting Benoit to man a spot along the defensive front. Plenty of right tackle reps witnessed on tape, yet not sure if this is a realistic spot for him at the next level, considering his current weight and technique. That could change, of course. I do like reps where Benoit is aligned between the B-gaps. He's on the nimble side of the DL athletic spectrum, so having him work as a potential IDL/3-4 DE would make plenty of sense, production on tape would solidify that notion. Excited to represent him on our lists.   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Ryan_Benoit67/status/1965588039230489032 </div></figure>     Self-reports a 3.8 GPA. Will rank as a two-way athlete, has experience at DB and wideout. 6'0, 165 pounds.   Has a three-minute junior tape that should have landed him on our rankings this past January, an oversight on my end. Triscila's single-game cut-ups against New Castle and Riverside High caught my attention via Twitter/X. Primaries as a perimeter pass-catcher for Hopewell's [player_tooltip player_id='1265746' first='James' last='Armstrong']. Deep outs, an occasional screen, posts, you can witness Triscila doing what he can to be a three-level option in an offense that is willing to push the ball downfield. Scored a touchdown against Riverside, Triscila is a wideout who could explode for big-time production with each passing week, especially with Armstrong throwing him the football. Excited to spread his name a bit further from now on.     5'9, 160 pounds. Legitimate dual threat at quarterback behind center. Self-reports a 4.1 GPA, as well as some serious testing/weight room numbers, too.   Aversa has done a great job keeping up with his Hudl, you can see five different single-game cut-ups, all from his senior season at Shaler Area. Aversa's junior tape was posted back in May, which is why he is currently on our watch list instead of being ranked beside his QB peers. Aversa's first rep on his Hampton tape gives coaches the idea of the level of athlete we're dealing with. Aversa makes a few defenders miss behind/near the LOS, only to bounce a run outside and continue to evade defenders in the open space. Shaler Area runs option sets tailored to Aversa's capabilities, often pulling OL to get out in front of Aversa. A great accelerator and gap-presser, Aversa will likely be ranked as an ATH over QB, yet he's no slouch as a passer, I might add. Reps against Plum Borough prove that he can hit open targets downfield, in comfortable pockets, or in situations that demand improvisational skills. Great all-around athlete behind center at Shaler Area.   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/aaronaversa1/status/1967657873003159900 </div></figure>     Team Captain at North Catholic. 6'3, 205 pounds. 3.7 GPA reported last Fall, still on bio at the current time of writing. Is a multi-sport athlete. A kid who contributes in several different alignments on offense. Worth noting he's a capable DB at North Catholic, too.   Arth's seven-minute-long junior tape missed our January deadline; this is the reason for Arth's stay on our watch list. Love what I'm seeing since catching back up to what Arth's been posting on Hudl. Four single-games up on Hudl, with performances against Quaker Valley, Blackhawk, and Knoch all readily available. Love his work against Knoch, proving to college coaches he's a viable/recruitable TE, thanks to his comfort level operating in several alignments for North Catholic. Can set in-line in a traditional TE alignment, scores running a corner route inside the red zone from this spot. Can serve as a flat-route option, as well as an impact blocker when aligned in as a "sniffer". You need football IQ to manage understanding responsibilities in several different looks, Arth proves he can do just that. Couple this with his GPA, size, and hands, you've got yourself a recruitable athlete. I'll work on pushing his name out a bit further on socials moving forward. Here's to hoping he continues to flourish in this offense, consistent production will prove vital.   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/ArthThomas/status/1966912138880184585 </div></figure>    <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/09/wl-to-ranked-projecting-ranking-boosts-for-25-pa-seniors-part-1/?preview_id=1878025&preview_nonce=36c4603f95&preview=true&_thumbnail_id=1878039">WL to Ranked, Projecting Ranking Boosts for 25 PA Seniors, Part 1</a>   <a href="https://prepredzone.com/?p=1879680&preview_id=1879680&preview_nonce=b3f7365a8d&preview=true&_thumbnail_id=1879704">WL to Ranked, Projecting Ranking Boosts for 25 PA Seniors, Part 2</a>   <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/09/wl-to-ranked-projecting-ranking-boosts-for-25-pa-seniorscwecewc/?itm_source=parsely-api">WL to Ranked, Projecting Ranking Boosts for 25 PA Seniors, Part 3</a>   <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/09/wl-to-ranked-projecting-ranking-boosts-for-25-pa-bjbjhjgggj/">WL to Ranked, Projecting Ranking Boosts for 25 PA Seniors, Part 4</a>
