Another Martinsburg Bulldog who had a strong senior season and was deserving of a rankings boost was 2026 DB Mason Walley Mason Walley 5'10" | 150 lbs | DB/WR Martinsburg | 2026 State WV . He got to show what he’s fully capable of this season after missing time due to injury as a junior, and proved to be one of the top defensive backs in the state. D2 programs would be wise to get Walley on their recruiting boards, and he will excel at the next level after some time getting bigger and stronger.

Mason Walley Mason Walley 5'10" | 150 lbs | DB/WR Martinsburg | 2026 State WV has bounced back from his injury-shortened junior season for Martinsburg, and the 2026 DB is a prospect that D2 programs need to get in on. Added size in the future will benefit Walley’s game further, but he plays the corner position with physicality as a willing presser. He’s been selfless on special teams as well as one of their better tacklers on kickoffs, where he plays with notable effort. Walley also does a nice job of getting off blocks in the running and short pass game to make a play on the ball.

The Bulldogs are hoping for 2026 DB Mason Walley Mason Walley 5'10" | 150 lbs | DB/WR Martinsburg | 2026 State WV to stay healthy this season. He’s one of the top defensive backs in the class when he is, and will be one of Martinsburg’s top defenders this season.

Here’s what we recently said about Walley in our 2026 Rakings Stock Risers article:

“2026 Martinsburg DB Mason Walley Mason Walley 5'10" | 150 lbs | DB/WR Martinsburg | 2026 State WV got sidelined with an injury last season, but was on pace for a very good year for the state champions. A fully healthy senior season will allow him to climb higher in the rankings, which we anticipate him doing with a bump beforehand. He’d benefit from added size, which he’ll do at the next level, but Walley has the athleticism and ability to garner D2 looks this fall at a program that will have a lot of eyes on them yet again.”
