Pre-Rankings Release: Noteworthy Oregon 27's

The updated Oregon 2027 rankings will be released in the next few days with a Top 200 List & Honorable Mention selections. Here we take a look at a few individuals who we will see on the rankings board, that had quality junior campaigns which should be acknowledged. Check it..         [player_tooltip player_id='937334' first='Parker' last='Edwards'] 6-3 245 DL Thurston    Edwards made the transfer from Sheldon like many others, where he excelled for the Colts. The big 2-way lineman was outstanding on the defensive side of the ball, finishing with 27 tackles, 12 TFL's, and 2 sacks. He was also an all-conference selection on offense.    [player_tooltip player_id='1709202' first='James' last='Richards'] 5-9 180 WLB/RB Sandy   Pound for pound Richards is one of the top 27's at the 6A level. He earned 1st team all-league utility and 2nd team DB honors in the Mt Hood, finishing with 72 tackles and 3 INTs to go with 615 all-purpose yards and 8 touchdowns.    [player_tooltip player_id='2090563' first='Robbie' last='Capers'] 6-1 205 DE/OLB Mountain View    One of Oregon's all time best coaches Brian Crum speaks highly of Capers and the season he just had. He will project as one of the IMC's top returning DE's next year. His performance against Silverton in the state semis was impressive, finishing with 8 tackles and a sack.    [player_tooltip player_id='1256167' first='Samuel' last='David Johnson'] 6-4 170 WR South Salem   You have to really like Johnson and what he brings to the table. I could see him climbing this list quick. As a junior he caught 41 balls for 538 yards and 3 TD's for the Saxons.    [player_tooltip player_id='1591709' first='Jayce' last='Strand'] 6-0 190 LB Westview    We've talked about Strand before and his production. He doesn't have elite size but all he does is make plays. For the year he made 81 tackles with 8 TFL's and 4 sacks. Westview is on the playoff bubble and he is that X factor.    [player_tooltip player_id='2073835' first='Devin' last='Prendergaat'] 6-3 210 DE Lincoln    This kid is legit. Prendergaat comes hard off the edge at 6-3 making all types of impressive plays. He earned 1st team all PIL honors with 6 sacks and 7 TFL's and has the potential of making a significant jump up the rankings board.    [player_tooltip player_id='1708644' first='Wyatt' last='Boeckel'] 6-0 240 DL Oregon City    Boeckel is an undersized D lineman who just makes plays. Even more impressive is the fact that he does it the NW's toughest conference. He earned honorable mention all-league honors finishing with 33 tackles, 3 sacks, 6 TFL's, and 29 pressures.    [player_tooltip player_id='1593171' first='Finn' last='Chambers'] 6-2 180 WR Ridgeview    Ridgeview was one of the state's breakout programs this past season largely in part because of athletes like Chambers. He was a 1st team all IMC selection catching 38 passes for 463 yards and 6 TDs on the year. The Ravens finished strong on the at 7-3, losing in the playoffs to 2x defending state champ Wilsonville 45-42.    [player_tooltip player_id='936935' first='Nick' last='Normington'] 5-10 160 ATH Grant    Normington brings real speed to the equation which is coveted at the next level. His 10.95 100-meter time and honorable mention all-conference honors this past season speaks to his potential.    [player_tooltip player_id='1265462' first='Miles' last='Evans'] 6-1 170 WR/ Tualatin    I would expect Evans to have a big senior season after earning honorable mention all TRL honors at WR as a junior. He comes from a talented family with outstanding academics. The T-Wolves will be a top 4 6A team next season.    [player_tooltip player_id='2071013' first='Jack' last='Wilson'] 6-2 165 QB Jesuit    Wilson didn't put up crazy numbers but he's a winner and someone who the Crusaders can rely on to lead. As a junior, he hit on 56% of his passes for 1,235 yards and 12 TD's and ended up being one of the better rushing QBs in the state with 394 yards and 9 touchdowns.   [player_tooltip player_id='937309' first='Jason' last='Kwasnik'] 6-1 170 QB Aloha    Kwasnik is in his 3rd year as a varsity starter and had a nice 2025 campaign, passing for 1,728 yards and 14 TD's/6 INTs. He deserves a lot of credit helping to build a Warriors program that went 4-5 last year and has a quality senior class returning.    [player_tooltip player_id='2054698' first='Caden' last='Seymour'] 5-11 180 DB West Linn   Probably the best DB you've never heard of in Oregon. Seymour had an impressive junior season at Safety for the Lions, racking up 2nd team all TRL honors. His name is getting out now.    [player_tooltip player_id='1660165' first='Marlan' last='McCowan'] 5-10 170 QB  McDaniel    The undersized QB did a little bit of everything this past season, passing for 1,258 yards and 10 TD's/4 INTs. The team finished 2-7, but the record was somewhat deceptive with McCowan keeping his squad in close and respectable ball games.    [player_tooltip player_id='1990102' first='Wyatt' last='Kerrigan'] 5-11 200 RB Stayton   Kerrigan is a powerful back with speed that helped Stayton finish a very respectable 7-3, losing 31-21 to Junction City in the playoffs. He was a 3rd team all state RB and could end up a 1st team selection next year.
