A unique linebacker and wide receiver combo, Gavin Gerritson Gavin Gerritson 6'2" | 195 lbs | LB/WR West Sioux | 2027 IA is a playmaker on both sides of the field for West Sioux.

On offense, Gerritson’s biggest strength is in the screen game, able to sneak back and grab a lofted pass over incoming pass-rushers, Gerritson turns upfield, locates his blockers, and patiently navigates through space using vision and speed.

As a linebacker, he uses that same patience to track down running backs or other ball-carriers, ensuring he doesn’t get beat or miss a tackle in the open field.

I was impressed with what I saw from West Sioux during its game against MMCRU in the state semifinals at the UNI-Dome. Gerritson was one of the Falcons that shined the brightest. He hauled in four passes for 82 yards and led them in tackles with 14. Eight of those stops were of the solo variety. Gerritson is an angular athlete that runs well. His projectable frame is capable of adding good weight and strength, leaving the door open for position flexibility on the next level. And rest assured, he has college potential. He finished his junior campaign ranking second on his team with 38 catches for 556 yards and was tied for the lead with six touchdown grabs. Gerritson piled up 78.0 tackles (63 solo, 7.5 TFL), a sack, four fumble recoveries and an interception.
