At the 2025 Recruit Vegas Showcase and Combine, Tuimaualuga impressed with a 4.65 forty yard dash. Combine this with a solid frame (6’1.5″ 218) and playmaking ability, Tuimaualuga is going to be a riser in the class of 2026. His size, speed and playmaking ability make him a prototypical linebacker for the college game. Speed to cover and pass rush, instincts to get the ball and physicality that would make Ray Lewis proud.

Tuimaualuga is one of the top returning defenders in NV 4A football after recording 9 sacks as a sophomore for Bonanza. He’s a disruptive DE that can create negative plays in the backfield as both a pass rusher and run stopper. He’s deceptively athletic at 6’/205 with the quickness to beat slower moving OTs off the ball and shows workable bend and mobility around the edge. He plays with consistent pad level, closes quickly on the ball behind the LOS, and flashes promise in his developing pass-rush skillset. Tuimaualuga- Prep Redzone’s #5-DL in NV’s 2026 class- is an under-the-radar DL prospect heading into his junior season.
