Another one of the top-tier stat stuffers at the quarterback position hails from Dakota Wesleyan quarterback commit Kaleb Lounsbury Kaleb Lounsbury 6'1" | 178 lbs | QB Pierre T.F. Riggs | 2026 State SD . Kaleb has completed 65.5% of his passes thus far for the Governors along with over 15 yards per completion. Where I have seen the biggest development from Kaleb in his senior season, aligns with the poise he has outside of the pocket. You can tell the clear chemistry that he has with his receiving core based off the game tape that’s out there and surely the growth has been evident with his mechanics. Surely a 2026 quarterback that is due for a big bump by next rankings update at the end of the season.

Kaleb was on my preview of QBs to watch from our Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase, and he proved why from all the reps I was able to watch on Saturday in Aberdeen. The verified 6’1 nearly 180 pounder from Pierre, created some chatter amongst the college coaches I talked to, as they were intrigued with the growth Kaleb made from last December’s eval. He showed off excellent speed with his progressions and brought a more poised and instinctive nature to his throwing release on the reps I got to watch on Saturday. Even from the intial eye test last Saturday, myself and the college coaches noticed the increased athletic movement that Kaleb has generated like from the Governors strength and conditioning program, which is a great one, to say the least! Kaleb is one that I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see him get some Division II attention coming soon. Another QB on the up!

Fresh off his first two offers this week, Kaleb is another 2026 quarterback out of powerhouse Pierre T.F.Riggs that I feel could make a sound leap up our rankings from how he looks in the live eval this weekend in Aberdeen. The 6’0 175 pounder, shows off a quick releasae that you can tell has an intriguing football IQ with how smooth he is able to fire-pop his throws on intermediates routes which show off elite precision for his wide receivers to progress quickly upfield. Kaleb also shows off a plethora of tight window throws as I envision the poise he has grown with that at other camps has intrigued college coaches thus far this Spring. I have a gut feeling he could rise up a tier on Saturday based on how he has developed during the live eval.
