5 Under-the-Radar Players Having Strong Seasons

[player_tooltip player_id='1524828' first='Gino' last='Greco'] has quietly been the heartbeat of Don Bosco's undefeated run this season. The senior linebacker sets the tone for one of the toughest defenses in the country — one that's shut down opponents from Texas to New Jersey. Greco is known as a true thumper, a throwback linebacker who thrives on contact and plays every snap with urgency. His instincts and read-and-react ability consistently put him in position to make plays, and he rarely misses an opportunity to finish a tackle with authority. What separates him most, though, is his leadership. Greco's energy is contagious, and his presence anchors the entire defense. Week after week, he's proving to be the emotional and physical leader behind Don Bosco's defensive dominance      [player_tooltip player_id='1938663' first='Cam' last='Aime'] is quickly emerging as one of the breakout defensive players in New Jersey. The two-sport athlete exploded onto the radar after his dominant performance against St. Peter's Prep, where he recorded three sacks and consistently disrupted the backfield. Aime brings a rare blend of length, twitch, and athleticism off the edge, but what makes him stand out is how polished he already looks as a young pass rusher. Through five games, he's tallied five sacks and seven pressures, showcasing both consistency and explosiveness. His early production earned him his first Division I offer from Temple, and more are sure to follow. Aime's rise has been rapid — and if he keeps this pace, he'll soon be one of the most sought-after edge prospects in the state.      [player_tooltip player_id='1105272' first='Christian' last='White'] has been one of the most underrated route runners in New Jersey this season. His suddenness and precision at the top of his routes make him a nightmare to cover one-on-one. White sells his breaks with excellent body control and upper-body deception, creating separation with ease. After the catch, he's equally dangerous — showing the burst and vision to turn short gains into big plays. What stands out most is how refined his overall game already is. He's a smooth, technical receiver who understands how to get open and finish plays. This past weekend, White picked up offers from Kean University and Albright College, marking the beginning of what could be a promising career. As he continues to polish his craft, White appears to be a player who could rise through the college ranks and make a name for himself as a future transfer-up candidate.   <blockquote class="twitter-tweet">Highlights for my first 3 Games(Missed one due to Ankle injury)<a href="https://twitter.com/ryne011?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@ryne011</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/TJH3_?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@TJH3_</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/SamH2528?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@SamH2528</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachDeAngelis?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachDeAngelis</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachEvanDurand?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachEvanDurand</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachFargo_KUFB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachFargo_KUFB</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachWatkCUSE?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachWatkCUSE</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoryPietrzyk22?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoryPietrzyk22</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/QBCoachCollins?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@QBCoachCollins</a> <a href="https://t.co/Xnm284xq6z">pic.twitter.com/Xnm284xq6z</a>— [player_tooltip player_id='1105272' first='Christian' last='White'] (@chrisswhite_11) <a href="https://twitter.com/chrisswhite_11/status/1970304812374720815?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 23, 2025</a></blockquote>       Kyron DuBose has begun carving out his own path in the long line of talented DePaul wide receivers. The junior wideout brings to mind former Spartan and current Notre Dame receiver Elijah Burress — tall, fluid, and smooth with a long, athletic frame. While DuBose may not have Burress's top-end speed, he makes up for it with polished route running, quickness at the top of his breaks, and reliability over the middle. He's shown the ability to line up both inside and outside, running a full route tree and creating mismatches against defensive backs. His 60-yard grab over two defenders against Don Bosco was a glimpse of his playmaking potential. Though this is his first year as a varsity starter, DuBose continues to improve weekly and looks poised to become DePaul's next big-time receiver.        Jack Hinspeter has quietly become one of the most productive young linebackers in New Jersey this season. Don Bosco's defense has been elite through five games, and Hinspeter has been at the center of it — making plays in space, diagnosing runs quickly, and finishing tackles with authority. Whether it's shedding a block to record a tackle for loss or chasing down ball carriers one-on-one, Hinspeter does everything you want from a top linebacker prospect.   In back-to-back games against Bergen Catholic and DePaul Catholic, he made his presence felt — hauling in an interception against Bergen and creating multiple negative plays versus DePaul. For a 2027 prospect, his instincts, tackling technique, and discipline stand out. Hinspeter is having an outstanding season and should start drawing serious attention from college recruiters if he continues to play at this level.
