He looks like a lights out corner already and has 3 interceptions halfway through his sophomore campaign. Picking up an offer from East Carolina this week is certainly impressive, but Brown is due for more. Love this young man's footwork and ball skills, you are going to be seeing more of him come postseason play. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/BrownAsaiah/status/1978449332308246988","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/BrownAsaiah/status/1978449332308246988 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1955041"],"_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-68efa8f9ee74d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">We missed on Churchland's [player_tooltip player_id='1955041' first='Logan' last='Wynne'] in our preseason rankings but nonetheless he has been very good under center for the Truckers. He has 16 touchdown passes and only 2 interceptions, he takes care of the football and is a precise decision maker. Seems to have a good feel in the pocket and can throw very well on the run. I would expect more colleges to start looking his way before his sophomore season is finished. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Logan__Wynne/status/1976059589641883680","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/Logan__Wynne/status/1976059589641883680 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["412072"],"_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-68eff82253f82"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">While the Woodbridge Vikings have many players who have had breakout seasons, [player_tooltip player_id='412072' first='Marquece' last='Sharpe Jr.'] has always been a go to playmaker. One of the conference leaders in rushing yards, Sharpe is averaged over 6 yards per carry and 5 rushing touchdowns. He is explosive and will be called upon more as the Vikings approach the postseason. I would expect more teams to try and slow down Woodbridge passing game and that should be beneficial to Sharpe. The Vikings stout offensive line and him running over/around and through defenses come next month will be a site to see. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1692697"],"_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-68eff82254008"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Break up the Jaguars, who currently have a shot at a District title, but one more win clinches Falls Church first winning season in the 2020s. A big part of that has been the play of their defense and linebacker [player_tooltip player_id='1692697' first='Benjamin' last='Vanterve']. This kid is a stud and we ranked in our top 150 with good reason. He gets after the quarterback and has good speed as a hybrid linebacker. Vanterve is starting to get on college coaches radars and looks poised to lead Falls Church back to the playoffs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Ben_Vanterve/status/1977111152137216231","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/Ben_Vanterve/status/1977111152137216231 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1692093"],"_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-68eff82254074"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Transferring in from Herndon has done wonders for defensive lineman [player_tooltip player_id='1692093' first='Braylon' last='Bates']. Now playing for Saint James Academy, he is a consistent standout amongst the Strivers star filled defensive front. Bates has picked up an from Virginia Tech since enrolling and is poised to be a top target for many other power 4 schools. He is already 6'4 and 250 lbs., making plays alongside a number of division 1 athletes, Bates decision to change schools has paid off.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/braylonbates24/status/1966563769422586333","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/braylonbates24/status/1966563769422586333 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1956535"],"_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-68eff9e48dbb8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1956535' first='Bentley' last='Wheeler'] is just beginning his ascension as an elite pass rusher for Saint Michaels in my opinion. Watch how he closes in on a ball carrier, this young man brings it on every bone crunching tackle. Already with 70 tackles and 4 sacks, you are going to be hearing more about Wheeler soon as he looks like an FBS level talent. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/bentley_w1/status/1978219759687639519","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/bentley_w1/status/1978219759687639519 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
