He is very smart and instinctive defensive back that looks ready to play immediately at the next level. Great ball skills and footwork, Collins had other suitors but ultimately decided on the Pioneers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Hunt20jr/status/1971778794290925720?s=20","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/Hunt20jr/status/1971778794290925720?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1516070"],"_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-691a23e0629b4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1516070' first='Bobby' last='Shea']'s fantastic career for the Yorktown Patriots sadly came to end last Friday with their upset loss against South Lakes. Shea who was a first team all region selection this fall had a host of Division 3 schools hard after him and ultimately he decided on Dennison University. The Defensive player of the year in the Liberty District, this young man will come in and play for the Big Red. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/BobbyShea99/status/1989144262794240272?s=20","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/BobbyShea99/status/1989144262794240272?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Offered:</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1290145"],"_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-691a23e062a0f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Our number 1 quarterback and 2 overall in the Virginia 2029 Class [player_tooltip player_id='1290145' first='Lord' last='Malik Heru'] is putting everyone on notice with his performance this fall.
