NAIA National Champs Grand View Dishing Out In-State Offers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The back-to-back NAIA National Champions, Grand View has continued to prioritize in-state recruiting. Here are some of their latest offers in the state of Iowa's Class of 2027. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["617066"],"_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-6a187aa7766c6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top running backs in the Cedar Rapids Metro and a playmaker for Cedar Rapids Jefferson, [player_tooltip player_id='617066' first='Uweza' last='Kalolero'] is a classic, underrecruited prospect that has a shot at being a star for a program like Grand View.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Give him just enough space to make his lethal jumpcut, and Kalolero is going to make somebody miss. With quickness in the open field and the foot speed to blow-by would-be tacklers in the screen game, Kalolero has a high ceiling as a third down back that can make things happen when his team needs them most. A small, but explosive back, Kalolero's low center of gravity makes him tough to bring down between the tackles and in space.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2087280"],"_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-6a187aa7767d2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A star in terms of his ball-pursuit, [player_tooltip player_id='2087280' first='Tyler' last='Kneip'] is a specimen of a prospect and is properly listed as an athlete here on Prep Redzone. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Tall and athletic, Kneip is a high-motor tackler that navigates the collection of bodies in the middle of the field well, playing physically with a desire to find the ball-carrier however he can. A name to know in having the potential to be amongst the top tacklers in Class 4A this coming fall, Kneip's a high-end prospect that could take his rangy, sideline-to-sideline tackling capabilities to the next level at a place like Grand View. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1207825"],"_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-6a1851ee07a30"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">He may not have the same Division I interest as some of his teammates on the SEP offensive line, but [player_tooltip player_id='1207825' first='Gunnar' last='Lee'] certainly looks the part with his 6-foot and 270-pound frame.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A mauler at center for the Rams, Lee can create big time holes in the middle of the offensive line for ball-carriers, overtaking defensive tackles on the interior with his monstrous size. If used as a puller and able to get to top speed, good luck getting out of Lee's clutches and not getting pummeled to the ground. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2155382"],"_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-6a187aa77690d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Possessing a tall and long frame at 6-foot-6 and 235 pounds, one can see the potential in [player_tooltip player_id='2155382' first='Nick' last='Mausser'] immediately. In position to play either defensive end or serve as a three-tech defensive tackle, Mausser has a ton of room to fill out on his frame and some raw athletic ability to work with. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Already possessing the length to get his hands up in the air and swat down passes at the line, reach in and grab the quarterback as the pocket collapses or get his hand on a ball-carrier before they break through a whole, Mausser has a boat load of potential for the Vikings staff to tap into should he chose to remain in the Des Moines metro. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2089176"],"_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-6a187aa7769fc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A finisher up front, [player_tooltip player_id='2089176' first='Camden' last='Somsky'] is going to play till the final whistle on the Sioux City East offensive line. Serving as the center for one of the more explosive offensive attacks in 5A football, things didn't get started with Somsky's consistency as a snapper and blocker. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Taking out defensive tackles on runs up the gut, getting out on screen passes, plowing over a linebacker and then finding a defensive back to block, Somsky does a good job of getting to the next level of the defense when he's called upon to do so. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
