This season night has 14 tackles, 9 tackles for loss, 5 sacks, and 2 QB hurries. Knight is a versatile edge player that's quick off the snap and brings speed to power, great competitor that chases down plays all over the field, is a sure tackler and a playmaker which is evident by his nine tackles for loss through 4 games. Smart player that is also outstanding in the classroom with a 3.6 GPA. Good enough athlete that can play multiple positions at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p id="E36">Film: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/13072436/Ryan-Knight">https://www.hudl.com/profile/13072436/Ryan-Knight</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p id="E41"><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p id="E43"><em><strong>Zach Pillow, WR- Viera High c/o 25</strong></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p id="E45"><strong><em>5'11 165lbs</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p id="E47">Pillow has been a big contributor and playmaker for the Viera Hawks so far this season. He's currently leading the team with 13 catches for 113 yards. The sophomore receiver is a smart rout runner that flashes the ability to find soft spots in zone, crafty route runner that consistently gets separation, shows sure hands, does a good job on deep throws making subtle moves to create separation at the top of his route. He'll be a player to keep an eye on for the rest of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p id="E52">Film: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/16355579/Zack-Pillow">https://www.hudl.com/profile/16355579/Zack-Pillow</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p id="E57"><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p id="E59"><br><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='128388' first='Malakai' last='Hudson'], RB- New Smyrna Beach High c/o 23</strong></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p id="E63"><strong><em>5'11 185lbs</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p id="E63">Hudson has been a big playmaker for New Smyrna Beach this season.

Hudson hits the hole quickly and runs with good power for his size, shows nice contact balance and keeps his feet moving to churn out tough yards, possesses good cutback vision and the speed (4.5 40) to take it to the house. Solid running back that coaches need to check out. He picked up his first D1 offer from Stetson University in May.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p id="E72">Film: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/12982071/Malakai-Hudson">https://www.hudl.com/profile/12982071/Malakai-Hudson</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
