We obviously need some WR representation for the PRZMN “Most Explosive” special, and there’s none better than Woodbury product and East Ridge High School 2027 Akeed Ali Akeed Ali Akeed Ali 6'1" | 160 lbs | WR East Ridge | 2027 State MN . A long-time popular name at PRZMN thanks to some strong showings at PRZMN Showcases early into his high school campaign, Ali has nothing but green testing numbers in his game – clocked in the low 4.7s/high 4.6s in the 40 at PRZMN Showcases and, and a boat load of MVFC and FCS stop-ins this winter have us bullish on Ali’s chances at earning some serious collegiate consideration during spring workouts and the Summer Camp Circuit.

Despite playing in a run-heavy offense led by Gophers basketball commit Cedric Tomes Cedric Tomes 6'0" | 175 lbs | ATH/QB East Ridge | 2026 State MN in 2025, Ali still managed to pop off 52 catches for 818 yards and 4 TDs last fall, and he displays the speed, vision, and playmaking ability to take a routine jet sweep or hand-off behind the LOS and ripping it for a TD against 6A defenses around the Metro. Ali owns the top-end speed to burn those last pursuit angles from defenders and finish big runs broken out in space for six, and he can go 0-60 in a blink. Has a great rep against Maple Grove where he slows and settles down to reel in a slant, then, in a second, he’s back up and sprinting into the endzone without a Crimson defender being able to even lay a hand on the wideout. Plus, Ali is positionally versatile and especially dangerous out of the slot, displays some loose hips and is a burner of a vertical threat, and is shifty, powerful, and twitchy at the top of the route.

Ali flashes strong hands that can finish contested catches through tight coverage and aggressive hands looking to knock the ball loose, and he fires and shows noticeable power out of his cuts, which can happen at top speed with fluidity and effortlessness. PRZMN really likes his rep catching a deep post against I believe Stillwater, wherein the East Ridge junior gets decleated by the SAF coming back from the backside. However, as good, tough receivers do, Ali held onto the ball like his life depended on it! Gotta love the reliability and grit in the junior. Must-know WR in the state going into the offseason and 2026 season!
