What a foundation to have as interior occupants. The two stars on both sides of the football are enough to drive opposing game planners mad. Now add three senior linemen that all rank inside the top 50. The AOF roster is unfair. As a Pennsylvania scout, I am not accustomed to seeing pass protection this proficient. Speaking of left tackle Will Prince Will Prince 6'5" | OL Avon Old Farms | 2023 State New E , the young man is also tasked with acting as the pulling tackle, showing off to FBS programs that he is capable of moving well in space. Prince lands on the athletic end of the tackle spectrum, standing at 6’5, 260 pounds.

Around the edge is another phenom that can light up any combine he attends. Eric Lindstrom Eric Lindstrom 6'4" | 215 lbs | DL Avon Old Farms | 2023 State New E , who very well could serve as a starting tight end at the next level, acts as AOF’s primary pass rusher. Rushing the passer is this kid’s strong suit, don’t let his overwhelming athleticism fool you. Pursuit to the ball carrier after shedding is elite. The kid can make up so much ground. While still a bit raw from a repertoire standpoint, Lindstrom makes up for it with his aggressive and punishing nature. I would love to know more about his pass-rush capabilities with his hand off the dirt. He has been actively recruited by the likes of Maine, Army WP, Columbia, Long Island University, and New Hampshire to name a few.

Can’t forget Kevin Nizolek Kevin Nizolek 6'2" | 235 lbs | DL Avon Old Farms | 2023 State New E who recently committed to Fordham University. Not fair having these two screaming off the edge together. Lindstrom and Nizolek share similar builds and styles, yet Nizolek has a little of that “hair-on-fire” style of play to his name. He’s so fast down the line of scrimmage. He plays to the whistle and has a hell of a motor to go with his attitude. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a move to OLB or even Safety at the next level, a testament to his versatility. Would be a coach’s dream to have Lindstrom and Nizolek along the same defensive lines.
