With 29 receptions for 511 yards and 7 touchdowns, he's a legitimate deep ball threat who can stretch the field and create mismatches with his size and speed. What makes him special is his ability to take the top off a defense and create explosive plays in open space. Adding over 250 return yards to his resume, Newman's versatility as a playmaker is undeniable. He consistently demands attention from opposing secondaries and can change the momentum of a game with a single touch. His combination of height, athleticism and elite acceleration makes him one of the top receivers to keep an eye on in 4A.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1720228"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-690255f24c809"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McArthur has emerged as one of the most explosive deep threats in the state. Averaging an eye catching 26 yards per catch, he's compiled 23 receptions for 614 yards and 10 touchdowns, proving he can take the top off any defense. McArthur's ability to win vertically and track the football downfield makes him a nightmare matchup for defensive backs. He's shown impressive body control and separation speed, often turning small openings into highlight worthy plays. As his team prepares for the postseason, McArthur's presence will continue to be a major factor in stretching defenses and creating scoring opportunities. His big play ability and consistency have solidified him as one of 4A's premier wide receivers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1992166"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-690255f24c858"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Webber has been a reliable and dangerous target all season long, putting together an impressive stat line of 25 receptions for 523 yards and 6 touchdowns. His precise route running and quick burst allow him to create separation against tight coverage and once the ball is in his hands, he has the acceleration to pull away from defenders. Webber has stepped up and become a go to receiver in clutch situations, showing poise and focus when the game is on the line. His balance between technical polish and playmaking ability makes him a tough cover for any defensive back. As the playoffs approach, Webber's consistency and ability to stretch the field will make him a big play threat for his team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1822961"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6903a9c56fb3d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tharp has been quietly turning heads on the 4A scene this season. With 29 receptions for 520 yards and 11 touchdowns, he's shown he can find the end zone consistently and be a go to option in the red zone. Tharp excels as a possession receiver who can move the chains and make contested catches in traffic. His strong hands and ability to shield defenders make him a reliable target in tight spaces. Beyond his physical tools, Tharp's football IQ and awareness help him find soft spots in coverage. As his team makes its playoff push, expect Tharp to continue making clutch plays and leading by example through his steady, impactful performances.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1992190"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6903a9c56fb87"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Katsoff has quietly become one of the most dependable and athletic receivers in 4A this season. With 29 receptions for 515 yards and 3 touchdowns, Katsoff has shown the ability to make big plays and extend drives. What sets him apart is his knack for going up and high pointing the football, using his athleticism and body control to out jump defenders in contested situations. His natural feel for positioning and timing make him a constant red zone threat and a reliable target on key downs. Katsoff's growth throughout the season has been impressive and he's quickly turning himself into a must know name for college scouts. His combination of size, hands and confidence makes him a rising star in 4A.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
