Oh boy I am excited to watch Gar Field play next fall, between Barlay, Quack Freeman and stud linebacker Erik Nelson Erik Nelson Erik Nelson 6'0" | 200 lbs | LB Gar-Field | 2027 State VA the Red Wolves should be playoff bound again. Nelson had an excellent junior season that earned him all district honors coming off a knee injury. He looks more fluid and healthy this offseason and his coverage skills are on point too. He is very smart in the middle of the Red Wolves defense. Playing for the Get back Gang this past weekend, I did not see him give up any passes over the middle.
