Defensive 2027s In Southwest Ohio Are Breaking Out in Big Ways

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Today we spotlight four prospects in the southwest corner of Ohio who deserve an extra look at their film. These four prospects, most of whom don't have much recruiting attention going on, have a chance to develop into solid players with continued strong seasons. Here they are:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1692924"],"_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-68fb9e1c33621"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1692924' first='Jason' last='Lewis'] has potential at Mason to develop into a solid prospect who can see his recruiting bloom in the spring during the college day circuit. Big, tall safety prospect with good range and pursuit. Instinctive, gets downhill and can run and hit. Wraps up and is a good tackler in space. Good closing speed especially for his size. Had 27 tackles, four pass breakups, one interception and one forced fumble last season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1588157"],"_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-68fb9e1c33680"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1588157' first='Jamison' last='Webster'] at Beavercreek already holds a couple of MAC offers - Toledo and Western Michigan - but expect his recruiting to really take off soon. Good closing speed from his perch at safety. Strong run defender, takes good angles to the ball and wraps up in space. Not as much of a thumper; just a good pursuer with a good motor and great instincts. Has solid ball skills with a wide catch radius.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1939834"],"_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-68fb9e1c336ce"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1939834' first='Kaleb' last='Peters'] is a very strong inside linebacker for Cincinnati Northwest. The 6-foot-1, 205-pound middle ‘backer is very good against the run. He can stick his nose in a pile and wrap up, flashes very good instincts and flows to the ball. Peters takes great angles and wraps up nicely behind the LOS. Through the season's midpoint, he recorded 40 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss and one forced fumble.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1953960"],"_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-68fb9e1c33718"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1953960' first='Steven' last='Niyimbona'] flashes upside. Good range and closing speed. Good instincts; quick to read and react on the move. Makes good open-field tackles and is generally a strong run defender based on junior varsity tape. Would expect his role to increase this season. See how he develops.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
