The first skillset I see the growth right away with Rapid City St. Thomas More 2026 offensive linemen Cole Nielsen Cole Nielsen Cole Nielsen 6'4" | 275 lbs | OL St Thomas More | 2026 State SD is the improved footwork he showed off within the first two weeks of the season for the Cavaliers. We’ve known that this young man can win at the point of attack, as that was no different if you look at Cole’s tape the first couple of weeks. The first clip you see Cole win with an angle block while he quickly gets the defensive linemen off-balance and down on the grass. The second clip shows off pure domiance in the A-gap knocking down the defensive tackle into the second level with sound pad-level, well-striding footwork, and that balance I referenced that comes with his feet. That also quicker first step blew downhill quickly A few offers have come in at the NAIA level, but I wouldn’t be surprised after a well-versed first couple weeks, that NSIC or RMAC interest come Cole’s way.
