Expert Analysis
Michael Huntley | Prep Redzone Scout
Aiava was a starter for a Santa Margarita team that won a state championship and earned Prep Redzone All-Southern California Sophomore team honors.
He is violent with his hands at the point of attack and moves pretty well for a guy his size. Aiava gets to the second level well and blocks well in space. On film and in a camp setting, he’s a good pass blocker with good balance and is a tough guy to move back. He was a top performer at the Prep Redzone Stock Up Showcase in January.

Read EvaluationPaul Gregorian | Prep Redzone Scout
One of the top ’28 prospects across the entire state regardless of position, the talented interior prospect is a very athletic and fluid prospect with natural bend and a violent strike out of his stance and dominated in his sophomore campaign against some of the top talent in the entire country in the Trinity League. He is a technician in the tranches that can get to the second level, block in space and pull across the line, running through defenders and showing a violent finish. In pass protection, he has a strong and balanced base, patient hands and stays within his frame while a high IQ protector that is not passive in his set. He is already well on his way to being a FCS+ prospect and should be closing in on his first offer soon.

Aiava is another guy who had a really strong first punch and good hand placement at the point of attack. He could work on his foot speed a bit but he did a great job taking post steps with his inside leg to cut off interior pass rush moves. Aiava does a good job dropping the anchor when needed and not giving up too much ground.

Read EvaluationArlen Harris | Prep Redzone Scout
Elyjah is a stout 6’1 265 pound offensive guard with good feet and pop. He’s a tank when his number is called to pull and introduce himself to the linebackers. I swear he could stop a rhino in its tracks with his punch power. Elyjah also plays with good leverage and rarely over extends when helping center and tackles double team. I believe he will continue to develop faster on the offensive side of the ball.
