He has been dominant this year on the interior and will have an opportunity to showcase his skills in the playoffs and over the off season, where he could potentially blow up.    [player_tooltip player_id='1546094' first='Shanko' last='Kornachuk'] 5-11 170 25' RB Lakeridge       One of the more underrated kids in the state for the 2025 class. Kornachuk has carried 39 times for 275 yards and 3 TD's, averaging 7.1 yards per carry. UW commit [player_tooltip player_id='284119' first='Ansu' last='Sanoe'] is averaging 6.1 yards per carry to put that into perspective.    [player_tooltip player_id='1110922' first='Caden' last='McMahon'] 5-11 190 WLB/RB Sandy   McMahon has been super impressive on both sides of the football as a junior, averaging close to 8 tackles per game with double digit tackles for loss, and multiple INT's/TD's for the year. Sandy is 4-4 but could easily be 6-2 with two close losses.    [player_tooltip player_id='937103' first='Cole' last='Callahan'] 5-11 165 27' ATH Lake Oswego   Callahan has one of the fastest rising stocks of any player in the state of Oregon.

The standout basketball player can also play a little football, looking like one of the state's top QBs as a junior. He will have multiple options collegiately.    [player_tooltip player_id='1341235' first='Jaxon' last='Barber'] 6-3 290 26' OL Lincoln    One of the fastest rising 2026-line prospects in the state. Barber has been dominant on the interior, projecting as a 1st team all PIL kid, much like his teammate [player_tooltip player_id='904424' first='Brady' last='Holland'] who is a D1 recruit.    [player_tooltip player_id='1546083' first='Anthony' last='Miralrio'] 5-9 165 26' DB Springfield     The Millers are 2-6 on the season while losing to three top 5A teams.

He had a good junior year at Lakeridge earning all-conference honors before making the move to Tigard.    [player_tooltip player_id='1185699' first='Kaden' last='Austin'] 5-10 170 25' WR Roseburg   Austin should be a 1st or 2nd team all-conference kid and is the best player on the Indians roster. Roseburg sits at 4-4 with the last few weeks speaking to his game, returning a kick for a TD and totaling 153 yards and 3 TDs in week 7.    [player_tooltip player_id='1286959' first='Kellen' last='Lefebvre'] 26' RB South Medford    South is a decent football team with the Jr. RB Lefebvre stepping up big. He recently carried 21 times for 185 yards and 2 TDs against West Salem in the 30-10 win. Look for him to play a prominent role the rest of the year and all of next season.    [player_tooltip player_id='1136115' first='Cruz' last='Gray'] 5-11 205 26' LB Thurston    One of the best players in the state at the 5A level. Gray broke out as a sophomore and has followed that up nicely this season, sitting among the state leaders statistically. He will likely be a unanimous 1st team all-conference LB.    [player_tooltip player_id='1474326' first='Brett' last='Ronson'] 6-2 245 25' DE West Linn    Potentially a 1st team all-state DE depending on how the Lions finish. Ronson is an outstanding overall athlete (baseball) and has been one of the best defenders in the TRL.    [player_tooltip player_id='1546101' first='Grady' last='Kik-Down'] 5-9 155 25' DB North Eugene   The Highlanders have battled all season with the likes of Kik-down ranking among the state leaders in INTs with 4. He is a big reason North competed and went 4-5.    [player_tooltip player_id='1328770' first='Dukatti' last='Witherspoon'] 6-5 210 25' QB Sprague    Definitely a kid with the potential of making an impact collegiately. The big 6-5 QB has the Oly's undefeated heading into a contest against 8-0 Sheldon where they will be 25–30-point underdogs. On the year Witherspoon has accounted for close to 2000 yards and 20+ TDs with a 77% completion percentage.    [player_tooltip player_id='1525160' first='Jackson' last='Graetz'] 6-2 255 26' OL Lake Oswego   Graetz is a big reason the Lakers are 8-0 and ranked the #1 team in the state. He will project as a 1st or 2nd team all TRL kid with LO returning numerous underclassmen and Graetz leading the line.    [player_tooltip player_id='1285759' first='Connor' last='Stuart'] 6-7 260 25' T West Linn    You have to like the size, with Stuart having an outstanding senior season thus far. He is still somewhat raw, but you can do a lot with his frame at the next level.    [player_tooltip player_id='1546087' first='Jaden' last='Tragesser'] 5-11 175 26' WR Lakeridge    Look for Tragresser to make a nice jump up the 2026 rankings board when updated. The junior leads the #4 Pacers in receiving, catching 31 balls for 417 yards and 4 touchdowns on the season.    [player_tooltip player_id='1423866' first='Mason' last='Chambers'] 6-2 180 25' QB Mt View    The multi-sport standout has filled in nicely for QB Connor Crum who left some big shoes to fill. Chambers has torched the state statistically and could solidify his status by helping Mt View make a run back to the 5A title game.    [player_tooltip player_id='285887' first='Jake' last='Drakalovich'] 6-0 185 25' ATH/DB Lake O    You could see Drakalovich listed as an all-state athlete if the Lakers continue their winning ways. He has stepped up big as a senior and should make a nice jump on the PRZ rankings board when updated.    [player_tooltip player_id='1546089' first='Tristan' last='Waage'] 5-9 170 26' WLB Oregon City    Waage is an under the radar athlete at 5-9 170, currently sitting with 20 tackles, 3 tackles for loss, and a sack this season. OC has played one of the toughest schedules in the NW and he has done well.
