Oklahoma Open 14 and Under Standouts

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 14-and-under division at the Oklahoma Open was rich in talented prospects. Here are several standouts from a tremendous weekend on the seven-on-seven circuit.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Tyrique Hicks-Wide Receiver/Defensive Back-Tape 7-2030</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Tyrique Hicks made plays on both sides of the ball throughout the tournament this weekend. Hicks did a great job of getting in and out of his breaks. He has the catch radius to haul in difficult receptions. Hicks is the type of wide receiver who will work his way open for his quarterback. Meanwhile, on the defensive side of the ball he defended against the pass aggressively and did an impressive job of batting passes away throughout the competition. Hicks is a player to watch out over the next few years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Jed Bracy-Running Back/Defensive Back-BCA Air Dawgs-2030</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jed Bracy's impact came on the defensive side of the ball quite often throughout the competition for BCA. Bracy did an excellent job in multiple games being able to read the quarterback and diagnose the play. Bracy made plays on the ball and killed several opponent drives in the process with interceptions. Bracy is a prospect to watch in the future, whether it be on the offensive side of the ball or the defensive side.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2136399' first='Chase' last='Meek']-Wide Receiver/Athlete-SNR-2030</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2136399' first='Chase' last='Meek'] had an impressive weekend at the Oklahoma Open. Meek consistently created separation from opposing defenders throughout the weekend. Meek uses his crisp route running ability to his advantage. He routinely made difficult receptions look easy and forced opposing defenses to shift coverages. Meek is a player with the potential to see playing time on both sides of the ball in the future. He is a player to watch out for over the next few years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1836549' first='Ryker' last='Johnson']-Quarterback-OKC Elite-2030</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1836549' first='Ryker' last='Johnson'] had an impressive tournament and opened plenty of eyes in the process. Johnson did an excellent job of spreading the ball around to his receivers. Johnson's accuracy was impressive throughout the tournament. The OKC Elite quarterback has the arm strength to cause problems for opposing secondaries. Johnson is certainly a quarterback to watch out for over the next few years. High ceiling for this prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Jayden Cooks-Wide Receiver-Say Less-2030</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jayden Cooks is a wide receiver who has a knack for hauling in difficult receptions. Cooks used a combination of sharp routes and good speed to cause problems for opposing defensive backs. He is a reliable target in the red zone and one who does well in going up and high-pointing the football. Cooks is another wide receiver with a bright future. Cooks has the potential to be a tough matchup for opposing defensive backs in high school play over the next few years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
