He has good arm strength and is an anticipatory thrower who can throw guys open. Isaia gets the ball out on time and as someone who saw the team in person last year, Murrieta Valley’s offense was better when he was on the field last year.

The talented sophomore passed for 2,500 yards and did some damage on the ground as well in his second season for Murrieta Valley and should be over the 3,000 yard marker as a Junior this fall.

He also shows he can get the ball out quick and on time, moves through his progressions quickly and can buy time when feeling pressure in the pocket and flashes various arm angles without losing accuracy.

His ability to extend plays with his legs, without losing vision downfield, makes him a constant threat both inside the pocket and on the run. Throws carry velocity and precision to all areas, and he shows a natural feel for timing and ball placement.
