<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Analysis</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The state of Oregon is loaded with talent and quality performances, so it was a tough year to sort through the top players.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>At quarterback, Mountainside senior [player_tooltip player_id='1232699' first='Cade' last='Mitchell'], West Linn junior [player_tooltip player_id='937233' first='Sloan' last='Baker'] and Willamette sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='904208' first='Zeke' last='Thomas'] claimed first team.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Not only is each arguably the top quarterback prospect in his respective class, they are having monster seasons. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This is an historic year at the running back position in Oregon, so it should come as no surprise to find Lakeridge senior [player_tooltip player_id='284119' first='Ansu' last='Sanoe'] and Lake Oswego senior LaMarcus Bell on the ist.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Writing his name into the record books, Jesuit junior [player_tooltip player_id='1591586' first='Luke' last='Ortner'] broke his school's record for single-game rushing yardage, but has been on a tear all season.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Glencoe's [player_tooltip player_id='1232743' first='Daniel' last='Heninger'] seems to flirt with the 300-yard mark every week.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Wide receiver may have been the easiest position to sort through, as the top tier has seemed to separate from a loaded - and very talented pack.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='769925' first='Oliver' last='Luebkert'] leads the state in most receiving categories, while Oregon City junior [player_tooltip player_id='1242623' first='Cavan' last='Rogers'] and Clackamas senior [player_tooltip player_id='1585698' first='Justin' last='Larsen'] are having big years. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Nelson junior [player_tooltip player_id='937176' first='Malachi' last='Garlington'] is having a breakout season and is one of the biggest stories in the state of Oregon this year. This stock is soaring - and for good reason.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Lake Oswego senior [player_tooltip player_id='457009' first='Sam' last='Vyhlidal'] returned as a two-way all-state player last year, and he again finds himself on the list at tight tend.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Along the offensive line, readers will see plenty of familiar names - and top players on top-5 teams: West Linn senior [player_tooltip player_id='769924' first='Kalani' last='Ioapo'], Lake Oswego senior [player_tooltip player_id='1525160' first='Jackson' last='Graetz'], Lakeridge senior [player_tooltip player_id='914288' first='Carter' last='Paul'], West Linn senior [player_tooltip player_id='1110963' first='Aiden' last='Jakubauskas'] and Jesuit senior [player_tooltip player_id='770046' first='Quinn' last='Wicklow'].</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Do-it-all Willamette playmaker [player_tooltip player_id='1654724' first='Hunter' last='Vaughn'] contributes in so many ways he was an easy inclusion as an all-purpose contributor.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The second-team all-state squad is also quite talented, and it was difficult to keep many of those players from climbing to the first-team list.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>It should be noted that the end of the regular season and playoffs could see plenty of movement.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A pair of recent injuries are likely to bounce out two second-team all-state guys by season's end that deserve some love: Oregon City senior quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='1673573' first='Kaeden' last='Emerson'] and West Linn all-purpose playmaker [player_tooltip player_id='937113' first='Shane' last='Peters'].</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Emerson was clearly having an all-state-caliber season before breaking his collarbone last week, while Peters was flirting with first-team status before his season came to an end.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Both players have college futures, and while Peters is likely to come back with a monster senior campaign, the prep career of Emerson has likely come to an end. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>It was a pleasure watching the Oregon City star do his thing this fall, and small-college programs would be wise to give his tape a long look. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
