Ellens has been a fixture on the Tiger O-Line for a couple of years. It earned him first-team all-state recognition from the coaches association as the center on a unit that helped Valley reach the state championship game. Ellens is a force in the middle. He’s technically sound with a strong base and knack for winning with his hands. They help him hold up well in pass protection in addition to the running game.
