RETURNING STANDOUT

Jacob Frye enters his senior season as the proven leader of Buckhannon-Upshur’s passing attack after hauling in 892 receiving yards and nine touchdowns in 2025. The lengthy outside target has emerged as one of the better big-play threats in Class AAAA, using his reliable hands, ball-tracking ability, and vertical speed to create explosive plays down the field consistently. Frye also picked up an offer from WV Wesleyan this offseason, and another productive year should only increase his recruiting attention. With a new quarterback taking over, his experience and playmaking ability will be critical to the Buccaneers’ offense. He has the potential to become a statewide breakout name this fall.

With a small group of defensive backs in attendance, some offensive players took advantage by getting defensive reps, and a few benefited, including Jacob Frye Jacob Frye 6'1" | 171 lbs | WR Buckhannon-Upshur | 2027 WV . Frye was already looking like a top performer in receiver drills and delivered strong reps at receiver and defensive back in 1v1s. Frye is a taller receiver at 6’1″ with great length and room to continue adding some bulk to his frame. He posted solid numbers in the broad jump (9′) and shuttle (4.81). What stood out about Jacob was that he seemed to catch everything thrown his way. He tracks the ball well and has big, soft, reliable hands for the ball to just loft into. Frye used his larger frame effectively when being physical to create separation and can adjust his body to box out defenders to make catches outside his frame. Under-the-radar gem!
