Building The Future: Early Look at Delbarton 2030 Prospects

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Green Wave are coming off a 2025 season that saw them finish with a &nbsp;4–6 overall record&nbsp;and a 3–1 mark in league play, highlighted by a huge win over eventual state-champion DePaul Catholic in October. Operating under Brian Bowers, one of the most experienced high school coaches in New Jersey history with 23 seasons under his belt with the Green Wave, the Morris County private school is starting to form the base of its future with the 2030 class. Here's an early look at the known Delbarton commits.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Note: </strong><em>This isn't the NCAA or the NFL and things change.

YES - [player_tooltip player_id='1476959' first='Mason' last='Rohan'] essentially missed all of this past season with an injury, but toss that out the window. The South Bound Brook-native is as smooth as they come as a Defensive Back. Long, and plays with educated feet. Have thought of him as a Safety over the last two years, but recent film has me not ruling out Rohan playing CB. In my opinion, he's one of the best DBs in New Jersey for the class of 2030.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1533748"],"_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-6998b1226e96b"} --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li><strong>Youth Ball: </strong>Cranford Cougars</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Selected to the NJSYFL All-Star Game in 2025</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's still relatively early in the admissions process when looking ahead to next year, but when looking at the crop of prospect Delbarton is bringing in on paper, I see Coccaro as the cornerstone of this 2030 class. The Cranford native checks all the boxes on, and off, the field when it comes to being a student-athlete. Violent between the whistles and a great person off the field. In the NJSYFL All-Star Game this past year, Coccaro earned Defensive MVP honors for this play. Also a talented lacrosse player, the 21-time Morris County Champion Green Wave are getting a stellar all-around athlete.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2066815"],"_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-6998b1226e8ac"} --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li><strong>Youth Ball:</strong> Montville Mustangs</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>DNP in 2025, instead opting for a reclass year at Parisi Academy</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If you were to design an incoming-freshman Quarterback in the lab, chances are the prospect that came out would look like a bit like [player_tooltip player_id='2066815' first='Tyler' last='Masella']. Physically, he's off the charts in terms of body type. He measured in at 6-foot-1 and 192-pounds at our New Jersey Prep Redzone Next Middle School Camp in late January, running a 5.2 in the forty. In an effort to hopefully quiet the opinions of, 'it's only because he reclassed a year' -- the kid was a NBJFL All-Star selection following his original eighth-grade season, back in 2024. No incoming freshman is a perfectly-polished diamond, and Masella has room to improve, but he has a tremendous upside.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2130215"],"_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-6998b1226eac8"} --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li><strong>Youth Ball:</strong> Roxbury Jr. Gaels</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Selected to the MCYFL All-Star Game in 2025</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Roxbury Jr. Gaels have been building a powerhouse program on the youth level over the last couple seasons.

Stud RB/LB [player_tooltip player_id='2130215' first='Mason' last='Bertos'] has been a major piece of that puzzle, bringing home Offensive Player of the Year awards for the Jr. Gaels in each of the last two seasons.

The righty gives Delbarton a pair of incoming signal callers that the rest of North Jersey public schools would kill for. Kachouh, like [player_tooltip player_id='2066815' first='Tyler' last='Masella'], is nowhere near finished products -- but the potential is glaring. Serving as QB1 for West Essex this past season, he helped lead the way for the Cowboys, as they captured the WEJFL League Championship this past season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2133206"],"_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-6998b1226eb88"} --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li><strong>Youth Ball:</strong> Chatham Cougars</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>DNP in 2025, instead opting for a reclass year at The Prep Year</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Akin to his future Green Wave teammate QB [player_tooltip player_id='2066815' first='Tyler' last='Masella'], two-way lineman [player_tooltip player_id='2133206' first='Luke' last='Allen'] did not play this past season, instead deciding to take a reclass year at The Prep Year. He was listed at 6-foot-1 and 250-pounds ahead of last season via Hudl, though that's not verified. In the (very) little film I've seen of Allen, he looks like a wide-bodied, strong, interior guy. From simply the eye-test, Allen appears to have started to change his body into a much more high school-ready form. He looks noticeably more solid in his upper body. The jury is out on what his future holds, mainly due to lack of available (searchable) film.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
