PrepRedzone has noticed over the past few camp cycles that La Crosse Aquinas High School seems to have the physically best-looking prospects at any and every summer camp we find ourselves scouting at. The summer of 2026’s rendition of this trend is 2027 Charlie Kirchner, an imposing First Team All-Eye Test, First-Off-the-Bus, and All-Lobby defensive end who measured in at a now-verified 6’4, 253 lbs. with a 6’9″ wingspan (!) at the 2026 UWEC Big Man Mega Camp. Despite what a recruits social media bio may say, there aren’t a lot of legit 6’4 prospects walking around, and Kirchner was tall, obviously long, and despite the frightening amount of room to fill in, was noticeably muscular and filled out for a mere rising senior. Additionally, and especially for his size, Kirchner was maybe the bendiest DL in attendance, with consistently positive and eye-catching leverage and pad level advantages over his opponents. Kirchner was up there as clocking maybe the most wins of the DL group. With the overwhelming size + length advantage, Kirchner also won with his get-off, which resembled a cannon ball shot out of a cannon at times, consistent hand placement, and quickness when working back inside on a setting OT. Kirchner also flashed some impressive power, winning with a mean, impactful bull rush when needed, and his ability to go speed to power had a few OTs going backwards on skates. This Blugold is in the middle of a stock rising summer!
