Despite being undersized, he makes up for it with elite footwork and disciplined hip transitions when mirroring receivers. Singleton does an excellent job staying low in his backpedal and maintaining balance, allowing him to break quickly on routes. His ability to read the quarterback's eyes helps him anticipate throws and close passing windows with confidence. At the catch point, he displays strong timing and body positioning to disrupt passes. Singleton also shows polished tackling mechanics in space, coming under control and wrapping up effectively. His instincts and route recognition allow him to play faster than his measurable traits might suggest. With his technique and football IQ, Singleton projects as a defensive back who can consistently challenge receivers and make plays on the football.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Check out my last regular szn game vs archbishop wood <a href="https://twitter.com/HEADSAINT?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@HEADSAINT</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/PRZVicCastillo?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@PRZVicCastillo</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/EdOBrienCFB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@EdOBrienCFB</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/PrepRedzonePA?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@PrepRedzonePA</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/footballcoach79?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@footballcoach79</a> <a href="https://t.co/3ureNmL6Ps">pic.twitter.com/3ureNmL6Ps</a></p>&mdash; Makai “squirrel” Singleton (@Makai_Singleton) <a href="https://twitter.com/Makai_Singleton/status/1982096014669406210?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 25, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1095979"],"_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-69b4da4842e78"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1095979' first='Chase' last='Winterborne'] is a versatile defender who brings strong technical fundamentals to both the outside linebacker and strong safety positions. His footwork and body control allow him to transition smoothly between playing in the box and dropping into coverage. Winterborne shows disciplined eye placement, quickly diagnosing plays and flowing downhill against the run. As a tackler, he demonstrates excellent form by squaring his shoulders and wrapping up ball carriers with authority. In coverage, he displays fluid hips and the ability to maintain leverage against tight ends and slot receivers. Winterborne also excels at using his hands to disengage from blockers when attacking the line of scrimmage. His ability to read blocking schemes allows him to shoot gaps and disrupt plays in the backfield. With his blend of physicality and technical awareness, Winterborne is a reliable defensive playmaker for St. Joseph's Prep.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Sophomore Highlights ⁦<a href="https://twitter.com/T_Roken?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@T_Roken</a>⁩ ⁦<a href="https://twitter.com/Coach_Sug?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Coach_Sug</a>⁩ <a href="https://t.co/7z3GuS7oJw">pic.twitter.com/7z3GuS7oJw</a></p>&mdash; [player_tooltip player_id='1095979' first='Chase' last='Winterborne'] St Joes Prep &#039;28 (@CWinterborne3) <a href="https://twitter.com/CWinterborne3/status/2012240358676013168?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 16, 2026</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["697657"],"_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-69b4da4842efb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='697657' first='Xavier' last='Higdon'] is an offensive lineman whose technical approach in the trenches stands out immediately.

His hand placement is strong and consistent, helping him lock onto defenders and steer them away from the play. In the run game, he plays with a physical edge and drives defenders off the ball with powerful leg drive. Defensively, Robbins brings similar fundamentals when lined up at defensive tackle. He uses his length to control blockers and collapse running lanes at the point of attack. With his rare size, strength, and developing technique, Robbins has the tools to become a dominant two-way lineman.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Junior Season Highlights<br><br>10-3 Record<br><br>11 Games Played<br><br>5A Allegheny Six First Team OT<a href="https://t.co/b8YICdGTAg">https://t.co/b8YICdGTAg</a> <a href="https://t.co/8U6pSeEMfs">pic.twitter.com/8U6pSeEMfs</a></p>&mdash; [player_tooltip player_id='1398249' first='Ryan' last='Robbins'] (@ryanrobbins78) <a href="https://twitter.com/ryanrobbins78/status/1990790920217014554?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 18, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
