With the athletes still being so young, it's tough to add a numerical ranking at this point. The individuals ranking is very general in nature and will likely adjust a great deal in the coming months & years.         Here we will breakdown the top 2029's in the state of Washington with this group being ranked in the #51-75 range. This list was put together in collaboration with Andrew Nemec.         COMPLETE RANKINGS <a href="https://prepredzone.com/washington/rankings/washington-high-school-football-2029-class-player-rankings/">https://prepredzone.com/washington/rankings/washington-high-school-football-2029-class-player-rankings/</a>         Looking at the back half of the Top 100 we see multiple individuals with a ton of potential who could climb the rankings board quickly. At the QB spot there were a few athletes who got varsity time as freshman. [player_tooltip player_id='1557975' first='Colten' last='Reid'] of Auburn Riverside hit on 50% of his passes (21/42) with 3 TDs/2 INTs for the year. [player_tooltip player_id='2137828' first='Luke' last='Christofferson'] of Mercer Island is a multi-sport standout who also got in the mix, completing 52% of his passes in 5 games (42/80) with 7 TD's/4 INTs. The Islanders continue to build as a program.    Two other quarterbacks who you will hear more about include [player_tooltip player_id='2122973' first='Graydon' last='Burns'] of Heritage who projects as the starter. The program had a successful (6-3) season last year with a solid line returning. [player_tooltip player_id='2142262' first='Eli' last='Downing'] of Olympia is another athlete who looks the part and will be one to watch.    RB Jayce McMahon averaged 7+ yards per carry on limited touches at the varsity level for a 1A Cashmere program that went (11-2). He looked outstanding on the camp circuit and will play alongside UNLV commit Prin Fox. [player_tooltip player_id='2210375' first='Logan' last='Caldara'] of 4A title favorite Puyallup will be another one to watch coming up. The Vikings are loaded at all positions, so playing time will be a question mark, but he will be a big-time contributor in the years ahead.    [player_tooltip player_id='2227946' first='Lennox' last='Parkinson'] carried the ball 38 times for 146 yards and 2 TDs as a freshman for West Seattle. He makes the transfer to powerhouse Eastside Catholic where he could play early considering how well he did last year. [player_tooltip player_id='2208681' first='Jimmy' last='Ha'] is a name most people won't know playing for a River Ridge team that struggled last year going (2-7). He could be a solid option at RB after going for 1200+ all purpose and 17 TDs at the lower-level last season.     Two other athletes to make note of out of Sedro Wooley include [player_tooltip player_id='2138652' first='Malakai' last='Dorsey'] and [player_tooltip player_id='2346412' first='Nolan' last='Roth']. The Cubs were one of the better 3A teams in the state finishing (11-1), losing to state champion O'Dea in the playoffs. Roth was exceptional, averaging 5 yards per carry and 20 yards per reception on 38 touches with 5 TDs. Dorsey will be dangerous out of the slot and in the secondary. He was also a standout track athlete, finishing 11th statewide in the long jump as a 9th grader.    At TE [player_tooltip player_id='2079660' first='Corbin' last='Williams'] of Emerald Ridge played and did well as a 6-4 frosh playing varsity. 6-4 205-pound tight end [player_tooltip player_id='2120118' first='Tucker' last='Lumby'] of Prairie HS is another good-looking athlete with a lot of potential. He hasn't gotten much varsity time thus far, but that could change quickly.    [player_tooltip player_id='2346413' first='Alex' last='Simmons'] of Eastlake HS is a name you will hear often. As a freshman, he caught 9 balls for 104 yards and a TD in the brutally tough Kingco conference. [player_tooltip player_id='2044894' first='Elijah' last='Wimberly'] of 3A Highline had an outstanding year also, earning 2nd team all-conference honors while averaging 10 yards per catch.    A few of the big boys up front who could make some noise include 6-3 260-pound [player_tooltip player_id='2176842' first='Nathan' last='Catlett'] of Graham Kapowsin and 6-2 320-pound [player_tooltip player_id='1397565' first='Colton' last='Yates'], AKA "Big Country", who made the transfer from Cascade Christian to Puyallup HS.    [player_tooltip player_id='2137872' first='Mark' last='Massey'] of Sumner and [player_tooltip player_id='2135995' first='Yoshi' last='Nu'u'] of Kennedy Catholic are other lineman who play for top programs that we could see once again competing for a state title. Don't sleep on 6-4 225-pound [player_tooltip player_id='2141143' first='Jordan' last='Pleasant'] of 3A Lincoln HS who could be one of the Abes breakout performers with his size.    Other individuals to make note of defensively include [player_tooltip player_id='2137873' first='Von' last='Jackson'] of Sumner, who could play as a sophomore for the 2x state champs and DB [player_tooltip player_id='2149459' first='Nekenieh' last='Wallace'], who actually made 22 tackles for a young and talented Lakes team last season.    6-2 240-pound Edge [player_tooltip player_id='2342532' first='Cameron' last='Mahoney'] is another Emerald Ridge 2029 athlete with the potential to play early. They should be much improved from last year's 2-8 team. Last but not least, 6-2 190-pound OLB [player_tooltip player_id='2082644' first='Hayden' last='Hilpert'] of Lakeside HS who projects as a 3 year all conference athlete. You have to like his size and overall fluidity from a young age.
