A seasoned PrepRedzoneMN Showcase veteran and name-to-know, Prior Lake’s 5’10, 180 lber. Hunter MacGillivray is having a heckuva senior season with the Lakers and is doing it all as a captain, two-way standout, and counted-on-playmaker. Going into Wednesday’s playoff matchup with Mounds View, MacGillivray is the team’s leading tackler (78) and rusher (609), and has also posted a FF, an INT, 5 PBUs, two 4th down TFLs, and 7 rushing TDs at an 8.3 yard per carry average. He’s taken his senior and captain status seriously and is making the most of filling the void of production left by last year’s seniors. MacGillivray’s success is absolutely a testament to his hard work throughout his high school campaign, and we could see it coming too, as he’s a 900 lb. club member who recorded a 405 lb. squat and 250 lb. power clean coming into the fall and ran 11.08 100M and 22.81 200M late last May. As a RB, Hunter Mac is a patient, North-South runner with good vision who can make that free defender miss in the open field, and shows off good contact balance for his size and an effective stiff arm. Safety is where he really makes his money though, and he plays like a heat-seeking missile and is an excellent run supporter who I love watching bring the boom to ball carriers. MacGillivray uses his hands well to shed blocking attempts and can beat blockers with speed as well, and he times out his blitzes and brings a ton of pace off the edge. Impressively, he comes downhill and covers a ton of ground when triggering on the football, plus he takes good angles to ball carriers and runs the alley well. I can’t get enough of how he goes all out in contact, and he is an explosive hitter and tackler who hammers bigger ball carriers like he’s 210 pounds. I could watch him lay the wood all. day. long. MSUM offered in mid-October, and MacGillivray will see a healthy rankings bump when we do our final PRzMN 2024 rankings update in the next month.
