The New York based squad, is made up of players from across the PSAL League in New York, including many Eagle Academy II playmakers.

Lewis ranks as my 46th best player in the 2027 class, and comes in as a top player to watch. He has outstanding hands, along with good body control and an IQ, which is on full display. Standing at 5'10" 170-Pounds, the Curtis DB, is name to watch given his ability to make plays on the ball on both sides of the field, and his ability to make sharp cuts to avoid tackles and take off for big gains.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1355486"],"_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-69e22a5c3a061"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1355486' first='CJ' last='McCracken'] is a newer name to the Prep Redzone family. The Eagle Academy WR, had an exceptional performance at Pylon New Jersey in February, and I fully expect him to make a major impact this weekend. McCracken has a smaller frame for a WR, standing at 5'7" 150-Pounds, but he is incredibly fast and runs smooth routes seeing him open with ease. His ability to make catches consistently and move the ball downfield makes him a name to watch for New York Hustle. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1355480"],"_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-69e22a5c3a0f6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">RB's are rarely used in 7v7, given the typical play calling and rules that involve throwing the ball. Zy Schulters will be a name to watch from the RB Position. Schulters had 23 touchdowns in the regular season, and was one of the most dynamic playmakers in the PSAL. He showcased elite hands, and the ability to avoid tackles with ease. His quickness, and ability to avoid tackles makes him a name to watch for New York Hustle. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">X-Factor</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1814216"],"_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-69e22a5c3a186"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">My New York Hustle X-Factor is [player_tooltip player_id='2170603' first='Juvens' last='Lindor']. The 6'4" 210-Pounds WR, is massive and look like a giant on the field. Lindor is easily one of the tallest WR prospects in attendance, and his frame makes him an elite weapon for Hustle. He is an ATH, and can play anywhere along the offense, I like his hands, and his sharp route running which sees him open on a majority of plays. After watching Lindor at Pylon two months ago, he will easily be a major factor in the success of New York Hustle this weekend. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other Notable Names</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='344519' first='Anthony' last='Caratelli']:QB:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Caratelli is one of two star QB's on this roster.
