GWOC Showcase: Top Performers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The GWOC conference held a two-part showcase on Monday in the Dayton area, the first of which was held at Centerville High School. While we couldn't make the second one held at Northmont, Kettering Fairmont, Miamisburg, Springboro and Centerville had several top prospects who came ready to play. Here are four top performers:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["586096"],"_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-69fa0b7f8c36f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='586096' first='Max' last='Miller'] flashed a strong arm at the GWOC Showcase on Monday afternoon and picked up an offer from Central Michigan. Miller has a cannon, has a quick release, and throws a nice, on-time, accurate deep ball. He is very good at throwing on the move, turning his hips to the target and hitting receivers in stride. Totaled 2,347 yards passing and 18 touchdowns last season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2158163"],"_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-69fa0b7f8c3d9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2158163' first='Brydon' last='Martin'] impressed me at the GWOC Showcase on Monday. The 5-foot-11, 150-pound corner is very feisty and physical in coverage. He stays in phase well, times the ball with his hands for pass breakups, and can jam/play press at the LOS. Martin is a potential standout for Miamisburg, who is looking to improve on their 2-8 record from 2025.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2202687"],"_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-69fa0b7f8c422"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Josiah Hargrove is an up-and-coming Class of 2028 receiver who caught my attention at the showcase. Hargrave can high-point the ball, displays great body adjustment and soft hands. Last year he was a contributor on defense and special teams, the latter of which he was quick to get downfield, run and hit. I think his college fit is at receiver, where his size and length give him a wide catch radius to be a legit next-level prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2202689"],"_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-69fa0b7f8c465"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I was impressed with 2027 wide receiver/tight end [player_tooltip player_id='2202689' first='Sam' last='Keely'] of Centerville yesterday at the GWOC Showcase. Keely, a big-bodied receiver, displays soft hands and flashes being a good route runner who can create separation. Against a Division I-offered cornerback, he flashed plenty of potential. Multi-sport athlete (Basketball), high-academic prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
