Continue ReadingThird and Ten has already attended a couple of tournaments and they are making some noise. They will continue to compete against some of the best 7v7 teams across America . Here are some more prospects from Long Island that will make an impact on this team.
Third and Ten returns one of their best players and one of the top prospects in the country. Josiah Brown Josiah Brown 5’11” | 175 lbs | WR Malverne | 2024 State NY is going to be a game changer in the seven on seven circuit. Fresh off of an incredible season running track, Brown will be bringing scary speed to this lineup. He has the ability to fly past just about any defender in the country. Brown’s elite speed will also be a huge factor on defense. I can see Brown being an excellent safety for this squad. His ability to read the quarterback’s eyes and make plays during the fall was impressive. He had plenty of touchdown saving tackles during his junior season. Brown can quickly cover a ton of ground and make plays on the football.
Highlights
Hermanns has been a player that has had a great start to the off season. This is a big addition for Third and Ten during this 7v7 circuit.. He brings tremendous arm talent to a roster with very fast receivers. He has the ability to absolutely sling the ball into tight spaces. Hermanns already made a name for himself at the Prep Redzone showcase in January, now he has a chance of impressing even further. I could see him showing out against elite 7v7 teams due to his accuracy. The ball placement he has will be something college coaches will love this summer.
The 2025 prospect made noise at the slot receiver position. I saw Martin in person in June, 2022 to then January 2023 and he got bigger, faster and stronger. For Hills East, it was evident that he was a leader just as a sophomore. He makes hard and sharp cuts while running routes and he is able to burst out of them quickly into open space. Hills East was a heavy run team but that could change this upcoming fall. Martin’s ability at wide receiver will be lethal for Thunderbirds. He is pound for pound one of the toughest players on the island. The strength he has built will lead him into a lot of catches through contact. His chemistry with quarterback Jordan Heyman is growing and it’ll be something to keep an eye on this fall.
This past high school season, Tripptree had one of the biggest breakout seasons out of any player in New York. His efficiency and ability to play amazing in the postseason was the most impressive part. During the year he also showed he was a terrific running threat. He has the athleticism to make plays running the ball or making throws on the run. Tripptree’s quick decision making will guide him to success with Third and Ten. His arm talent is very exciting and now he will work with some electrifying wide receivers. Tripptree throws a pretty deep ball, so it’ll be a must watch when he connects with these speedsters this spring and summer.

Joshua Lewis
Joshua Lewis
When watching Floral Park it was hard to miss Lewis considering how easy he made it look to create separation. He did a tremendous job against the DB’s at the tryout and this simply was a continuation of junior year. Lewis had a huge year leading his conference in receiving yards and part of the success was his quickness. Lewis had a nice release from the line of scrimmage and he was a mismatch in the slot. He was able to hang onto a ton of passes through contact in the fall. His ability to readjust his body to make a play on the football was an impressive trait he had during the fall.
Each time White steps out onto the field you are getting a treat. Last month at the tryouts it was awesome to see White battling against his Titan teammates along with other elite receivers. He showed he can go toe to toe with all different types of talented receivers. White will be one of the leaders of the 18U secondary during all these tournaments. Teams will most likely test White with bigger receivers and he’ll be up for the task. The past three seasons he has been a terrific cover corner and now it’ll be fun to see him do it against great receivers all over the country.
