Hess flashes a quick release and great deep-ball accuracy. He throws with great timing, rhythm and touch. More of a pocket guy, he isn't particularly mobile, but the three-sport athlete (basketball and baseball) has potential to develop into a star. His upcoming junior season will be key, as well as his performances at college camps.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2059854"],"_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-6999d69d003ba"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2059854' first='Rowan' last='Kennedy'] is a starting wide receiver for Rocky River, and the 6-foot-3, 200-pound wide receiver is a strong perimeter threat with soft hands and solid run-after-the-catch ability. Kennedy caught 43 passes for 1,103 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns, and added three interceptions on defense: a testament to his elite ball skills.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2042142"],"_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-6999d69d0043f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2042142' first='Makhai' last='Brogdon'] is a starting running back for Warren Harding. The 5-foot-11, 170-pound prospect finishes forward on contact, has good vision and solid change-of-direction. He has good contact balance, finishes forward and stays on his feet nicely in space. Strong both between the tackles and off-tackle, Brogdon is a key threat on Harding's offense and a player opposing teams have to account for.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2127877"],"_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-6999d69d004b8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Finding a replacement for Kentucky signee Matt Ponatoski will be a challenge. Does Moeller Class of 2028 quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='2127877' first='Nick' last='Monserez'] fit the bill? He displays a quick release, throws with accuracy and velocity in the short/intermediate game, and is gaining traction on the recruiting trail, having earned an offer from Miami-Ohio. A big season looms large for this 6-foot-2. 180-pound passer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
