<p>Our Prep Redzone Exposure Camp was on Friday, as over 70 athletes from across the state (and a few from out of state) came to compete in front of college coaches. We're well into our extensive coverage of the event. We've already taken a <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/05/prep-redzone-exposure-camp-underclassman-accolades/">bird's-eye view</a> of the camp, and we're in the process of breaking down every player in attendance by position. Here, we're continuing our positional breakdowns by looking at an impressive offensive line group.</p>

<p>We had nine offensive linemen in attendance on Friday. Here are some scouting notes about each.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} -->
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Small-School Guys</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I'm always interested in what guys from smaller schools can do, especially on the offensive line. And interestingly, we had a higher proportion of guys at the 4A level or below in attendance on the offensive line than at any other position. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>American Leadership Academy-Johnston has had a solid offensive line in recent seasons, and I got my first look at two rising juniors on Friday.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2192554' first='Noah' last='Ennis']</strong> is a big, powerful guard with some two-way potential. He showed good technique as a run-blocker and the power to drive and displace defenders. He's refining his pass-blocking technique, but he had a couple of wins in one-on-ones and showed some promise.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>His teammate, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2148600' first='Kyle' last='Connolly']</strong>, is still developing physically but has shown some technical promise. With a 75-inch wingspan, he plays bigger than his size, and he's put in the work in the weight room this offseason. I expect him to keep getting bigger before the season, and he should have decent size for a 2A center. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Ashe County's <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1939214' first='Hunter' last='Wingler']</strong> is a big-bodied center with a huge wingspan and excellent run-blocking prowess. He's versatile enough to play any interior spot, and he looked very comfortable with all the run-blocking techniques during the drill portion. He also had some clean wins in one-on-ones and showed that he can hold his own against both bigger and more athletic defensive linemen.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Finally, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1670896' first='Logan' last='Martin']</strong> of North Stanly is a two-way lineman along with his brother. I have Logan ranked on the offensive line, and I feel good about that assessment after seeing him on Friday night. He has the frame to add more weight, but I loved his technical abilities, and he took coaching well. He's a vocal leader who can command an offensive line, and his play strength is much better than his size would suggest.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} -->
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">5A/6A Anchors</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>We had three guys in attendance who were All-Conference guys at the 5A or 6A levels. I had high hopes for each, and I still came away impressed.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The fun thing is that the three are in different classes and play different positions.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Starting older, 2027 guard <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='772855' first='Samarion' last='Dawkins']</strong> is a bit undersized, but delivers a punch. In drills, he was clearly one of the top guys, looking comfortable while pushing the others. In one-on-ones, he had one of the better records of the offensive linemen, consistently winning, with a few dominant reps.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>2028 tackle <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1815332' first='Landon' last='Suttle']</strong> showed the same power that he shows on film. Part of the reason I loved getting him in camp was that I got to watch multiple pass-blocking reps. That's a part of his game we don't get to see often, given the offense he plays in. He's a good lateral mover, able to down block and pull, and he excels at reaching to kick out edge rushers and blitzers before climbing to the next level.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Rising sophomore <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='865972' first='Jackson' last='Jenkins']</strong> was as dominant as we've seen him. He put on a bunch of good weight since we last saw him, while maintaining his quickness and first step off the line. He's what I'd call an aggressive pass-blocker, a guy who seeks out contact rather than waiting passively. We had a Power Four grade on him pre-camp, and if anything, he only improved his stock last week.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} -->
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">7A Seniors</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Finally, we had two rising seniors from the 7A class with the potential to play in college. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1607805' first='Gavin' last='Passino']</strong> is a high-academic interior lineman with a huge wingspan and the potential to add a bit more weight, should he need to. He looked as consistent as we've ever seen him on Friday. He didn't have many highlight-reel blocks, but he also won most of his reps cleanly, showing his potential to play at the D2 or FCS level.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Weddington lineman <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2192887' first='Anthony' last='Garcia']</strong> is technically sound, and I like his profile, assuming he adds some weight between now and when he gets to the next level. He's aggressive and should have more opportunities as a senior on a great team to showcase his talent this season. </p>
