With the amount of star athlete Pryors that have come out of Woodbine, it shouldn’t come as a shock that another is set to take over as the Tigers starter this fall. Sitting behind Brody Pryor last season, Cal Pryor Cal Pryor 5'11" | 150 lbs | ATH Woodbine | 2027 IA looks to be in line to take snaps under center in 2026.

Lucky for he and the TIgers, Cal has some experience already under his belt, and he showed some encouraging things, too. Between a few reps lined up at quarterback and others where he served as the passer in trick plays, Pryor showed the ability to launch it down field and in the intermediate passing game. He stands in the pocket tall and confident, ready to launch. On trick plays, he avoided the rush, stayed calm and delivered an accurate ball. He’s one of the lucky expected starters that will have talent like Landon Blum Landon Blum 6'4" | 190 lbs | WR Woodbine | 2027 State IA , Micah Moores Micah Moores 6'2" | 200 lbs | LB/RB Woodbine | 2027 State IA and Ayden Coenen Ayden Coenen 6'5" | 205 lbs | WR Woodbine | 2028 State IA around him to help propel the Tigers to another successful season.

In his limited experience, Cal completed 26-of-32 passes (81.2%) for 430 yards, nine touchdowns and no picks.

The eight-player game fits Pryor well as a student-athlete with speed and a motor. Video highlights on his Hudl page reveal a student-athlete that plays well in space on both sides of the ball. Pryor performs with good tempo and looks natural when playing the game. He played snaps at quarterback and showed potential there, too. Right now, defensive back probably is his likely position after high school. Pryor is coming off of a sophomore season that saw him record 45.5 tackles (26 solo, 3.0 TFL) and two interceptions.
