It’s tough to mention any West Catholic prospect after the showing put up by the Burrs against a loaded Imani Christian team. The game was never close, yet this is a prime example of why I like to go to games in person. If you look at the scoreboard, or a tweet that tells you the score, you won’t get the entire story. I came away pleased with senior quarterback Kal-El Durham Kal-El Durham 5'9" | 165 lbs | ATH West Catholic | 2025 State PA . At his stature, throwing the football well against any team is tough to do, he’s done so in the past. Throwing well against a secondary loaded with Division One talent is an even more difficult task, one Durham was tasked with taking early this past Saturday morning. Durham did all he could, maximum effort was given from what I can tell. When plays broke down, which many did right after the snap, Durham was tasked with creating something out of nothing. Grading him on a lower scale, understanding the circumstances he’s pitted up against, I’d say Durham did a good job improvising with his legs. Durham has always served as a dual-threat prospect, he looked particular good in the open-field as a debuting senior behind center. Durham housed a QB keeper in this one, this serving as the lone score put on the board by the Burrs. The West Catholic coaching staff can hold their head knowing their man behind center can always create something out of thin air if sets go awry early. More outings like this and Durham will see a boost in rank easily.

2022 Production: 64 completions, 730+ yards, 5 passing touchdowns. 125 yards on the ground, 3 scores on the ground.
Like I’ve said before, don’t conceive notions on the young man without plugging in his tape. 5’10, 170, 3.9 GPA. Has no problem testing a defense deep, he can get the ball out far enough to give Suah and Thompson chances downfield. Duality to his game, as he can use his feet to escape the pocket to avoid pressure or pick up yards with his legs. Love the attention to detail he shows in his dropback and footwork in the pocket. No lazy steps, might not be the correct step every time but the kid focuses on the timing and rhythm of his feet, we know how important that is to executing sets. Durham reads and sees the middle of the field well, often accurate on drags, crossers, and seam benders. Want to see Durham execute the easy things on tape. Want to see him be a bit more decisive, although the magic he displays when things break down is a plus.
