It is clear that the student athletes across the state have really hit their strides and it has led to some elite individual performances leading to big wins for several teams. That includes several explosive WR performances, a dominant receiving/rushing combo effort, a newcomer at the QB position, and many other need to know prospects. The tape is impressive, so make sure to watch it for yourselves after reading through the article. Let's dive in!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1336923"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ab30341b141e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong><em>Stat Line: 6 Receptions, 106 Yards</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We start off with a quick highlight reel of a very explosive performance from Menomonee Falls senior WR [player_tooltip player_id='1336923' first='Eli' last='Holzman']. The senior athlete is now up to 5'10" 170 lbs and spent Week 5 showing that he could attack all levels of the defense. We see the speed to get behind the defense for big plays right at the start of the film. Then we see a combo of speed and body control allow the sideline while making the toe tapping catch. It ends with the senior WR taking a quick screen, making a move and then picking up a quick chunk of yardage before going out of bounds. Menomonee Falls has one of the top passing offenses among large schools and Eli has been a key reason behind that recently. Check out the senior.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/eliholz19/status/2102406753795428814","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"x","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/eliholz19/status/2102406753795428814 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://x.com/eliholz19/status/2102406753795428814","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://x.com/eliholz19/status/2102406753795428814 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1734115"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ab30341b145c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong><em>Stat Line: 4 Receptions, 122 Yards, 2 TDs</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ezekiel has definitely grown into the WR position since he first made our Watch List. The senior is now 6'2" 170 lbs and producing several key explosive plays for his offense. The senior's first catch was on a great catch where he attacked the middle of the field and fearlessly went up for the catch before taking the hit. The 2nd clip shows the senior making a great, quick snag and then showing off just how elusive he can be in the open field. He left two defenders tackling air before he was finally dragged down. The first of his TDs came on what looked like a post route that he won with pure speed, crossing the face of the DB untouched and easily reeling in the pass. The final TD came on a deep shot where Ezekiel did really well to adjust in the endzone so that he could be the one to go up and high point it over the defender. Coaches you need to get your eyes on the senior out of Bradley Tech in Milwaukee.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2333634"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ab30341b1480"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong><em>Stat Line: 11 Receptions, 127 Yards, 2 TDs</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rowan is emerging as one of the standout two way skill players in northern WI. The 6'3" 190 lbs athlete has an elite frame for the S and WR position. Friday night the senior put on a show both ways, especially at WR. His two scores highlighted his next level worthy redzone presence. The first he won on the fade route and the 2nd he was able to quickly find the soft spot and then finish into the endzone. Later in the film we see the ball skills as he perfectly tracked a deep shot over the shoulder with the DB right on him and still hauled in the pass. Despite the large frame Rowan's Week 5 highlights show a kid that is smooth and able to create separation with route running along with how he uses his size to create space at the catch point. Don't miss out on the Rhinelander senior.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2055377"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ab30341b149f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong><em>Stat Line: 7 Receptions, 152 Yards, 4 TDs</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Junior WR [player_tooltip player_id='2055377' first='Beau' last='Spindler'] set a Mondovi High School record with 4 TDs in Week 5. The first clip is a quick TD that highlights his natural hands, or should I say hand, as he snags a 1 handed TD catch. TD #2 shows that the standout junior isn't just a big receiver. He can also take the quick pass and gash the defense for long chunks of yards after the catch with his 2nd gear. The tape also has glimpses of his ability to run with power after the catch as well as the ability to create separation with his route running. When it comes to small school athletes this junior is right up battling for the top spot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src=u0022https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17689105/6ab180b0096a6a91b1d503a5u0022 width=u0022640u0022 height=u0022360u0022 frameborder=u00220u0022 allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ab30341b14cb"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1882133"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ab30341b14f1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong><em>Stat Line: 126 Receiving Yards, 2 TDs, 68 Rushing Yards, 1 TD</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Mace has been proving that he is one of the most explosive WR prospects in the state since he was a sophomore. This week we got more examples of his dominance. Right off the bat we see him score a long TD simply because of his superior speed that easily helped him pull away downfield. TD #2 was more of the same on a perfect post route. The speed was most on display on his rushing TD coming off a reverse where he beat the defensive angles down the sideline. The 2028 looked like he was play on rookie mode throughout the tape. He plays the game at a different speed than everyone else and also has lightning quick agility to pair with the speed.

The sophomore started his first varsity game this past week and went absolutely berserk! The sophomore is already looking the part of a next level prospect with his 6'5" 170 lbs frame. The lefty can sling the football without a doubt. He has the arm to attack the deep third of the field and do it accurately. We see one clip of him getting it downfield while throwing off the back foot with pressure in his face. The sophomore already is showing a great grasp of the offense, making decisive decisions and using pump fakes to get DBs to commit incorrectly.

Following those two plays we see multiple examples of his physical running style and contact balance to gain yards after contact. Plus several clips of him creating something when initially things looked defended well. The playmaker can make things happen any time he touches the football and showed that over and over in Week 5.

The offense focused on getting Miller the ball quickly and leaning on his ability to pick up chunks with his burst and speed then finishing plays with tone setting violence. The long TD started on a blown coverage and ended with more punishing running after the catch from the senior WR.
