would be a home town win for Grand View on the OL. An interior offensive lineman that pops up out of his stance and can stonewall defensive tackles in the run game while also getting some push at the line of scrimmage, Hughes is the type of guard or center that can anchor an offensive line.
If there isn’t someone in his immediate line of site to block, Hughes will go out and find someone to either double-team in the passing game, or he’ll get to the second level and plow the way for Waukee ball-carriers.

Read EvaluationRob Howe | Prep Redzone Scout
Hughes can get overshadowed playing alongside two D-I guys on the Warriors’ offensive line. The junior is a strong performer in his own right and deserving of more attention in recruiting. With leverage and power, Hughes is built for the interior. Watching his junior highlights, we witness excellent get-off on the snap and a knack for staying engaged. Hughes places his hands well and moves his guy on the regular. Athleticism and agility allow reaching of blocks on the second level and beyond. He shows a knack for combination blocking when pulling or getting downfield. Scouts would be wise to give Hughes a close look.
