The Class of 2027 athlete is very shifty in space, making defenders miss after the catch, and displays soft hands, eluding blockers after the catch. Davis had 147 carries for 674 rushing yards and 76 receptions for 764 receiving yards, totaling 24 total touchdowns and finishing inside the top 10 in scoring. He is a key returning piece for the Division II squad looking to finally win a state championship in Canton.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1685886"],"_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-6a84615b473fd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Drew Cripps has the potential to be a legitimate Division I prospect down the line. Cripps is a top-shelf receiver with great adjustment back to the ball, solid route runner who can catch over defenders and win one-on-one battles. He finished last season with 120 total points, capped by 999 yards rushing and 292 yards receiving. Big returning threat in the Class of 2027 for Alter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1616376"],"_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-6a84615b474da"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Yomar Castellano is a very good inside receiver and crafty route runner who is very creative and good at getting open, especially around the goal line. Really love his abilities as a route runner, snatches the ball out of the air, and can make acrobatic catches look easy. He finished last season with 106 points.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["448013"],"_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-6a84615b475ac"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Edmund McAllister had a dominant freshman season, scoring 104 points in touchdowns and leading all returning sophomores in the state of Ohio. McAllister is explosive with great vision, change-of-direction, and ability to make defenders miss. He flashes great top-end juice if he finds grass. Very good off-tackle runner with good burst and twitch. Really expect big things from him over the next three years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
