<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1776960' first='Jared' last='Mitchell'] is one of the better two-way athletes in the state of Georgia for his classification. He is someone who remains to be dominant for the team he plays for, and has started to receive some attention from college coaches because of it. He will likely be a wide receiver at the next level, but that remains to be seen. He has good size to him, and is someone who will be faster than the typical player with his size. He is quick, but the best part of his game is the physicality that he brings. He is one of the North Georgia exceptions.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Arguably the fastest rising wide receiver in the state of Georgia. He has been electric with what he brings to the table, and remains to be one of the better players in the state of Georgia, as he just smashed a school record in his most recent game. That being when he finished the game with 260 receiving yards and four touchdowns on 10 catches. This is a school record, and is one of the more accomplished stat lines the state has seen all season long. He remains one of the better players in the state at the position, and you have to imagine that [player_tooltip player_id='289475' first='Chris' last='Miller'] remains thrilled to have him to throw to.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Fries is nothing short of a ball player. He is someone who is at his best when the game relies on him. That seems to be the case for the Ringgold Tigers sometimes, as he is someone who is a force running the ball and a defensive weapon. He is a physical player, but his size holds him back from colleges. He is a star and has been overlooked because of this. He will remain a weapon for the Tigers until his career is wrapped up. With that being said, the Ringgold running back is still one of the better running backs in the northern part of the state.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">One of my favorite players to watch. He has been one of the better safeties in the northern part of the state, and is someone that has gotten better over time. He has a field general type of mindset, and is someone that can change the way the game goes at the snap of his fingers. He is a good tackler, and does all of the little things right. He is someone who also has good size, as he seems to be taller than 6'0 in person. The Bruins are at their best when he is at his best.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">If you think you are bringing [player_tooltip player_id='1987816' first='Nash' last='Smith'] down on the first tackle attempt, you're wrong. Smith is someone who is getting better and more dominant in the backfield every week. He gives Dalton their best chance to succeed, and is someone who keeps the Catamounts in range of winning some of these games that didn't go their way. He runs with a lot of power, but is quick. Not the biggest guy in the room, but he has heart, and that shines through the most. He plays in a tough Georgia classification, and still shows a lot of dominance. If he had another year of eligibility, he wouldn't be overlooked, but with him hitting the scene late he is overlooked by the nature of the scene. By far one of my favorite players in the state.</p>
