Team Spotlight 15U: Excel Speed

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The first day of the Route 66 Classic was one for the books. It was such a well put together camp from this Prepredzone staff, and I want to thank every single one of the staff for putting on a show. From the refs to the coaches, it was a very fun day of football.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Now this team spotlight is for none other than the Excel Speed Boys 15U squad. They walk out of the first day of action with a 3-0 record and have their eyes set on the championship trophy.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1734482"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2155458,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-69bf6f37bc498"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1734482' first='Dereon' last='Harrell'] was a handful for every corner that lined up in front of him.
