Lamar Best Lamar Best 6'0" | 175 lbs | QB St. Joseph Regional | 2026 State NJ earns the “Most Likely to Bounce Back” superlative after a promising season was cut short by a shoulder injury. The St. Joe’s Regional quarterback leaped from Willingboro to North Jersey and immediately proved he belonged. Before his injury, he was one of the most dangerous dual-threat quarterbacks in the state, putting his team in a position to win with both his arm and legs.

Now, entering his senior year, the question is how his play style will evolve. Will St. Joe’s continue to use him heavily in the designed run game, exposing him to hits? Or will they lean more on his passing ability and let him distribute the ball to his talented playmakers? His ability to stay healthy could be key to St. Joe’s contending with Bergen Catholic.

Despite last year’s setback, Best earned Division I offers from Delaware State and Tulane. If he returns to his pre-injury form, there’s no reason he can’t lead St. Joe’s to a championship push and solidify himself as one of the top quarterbacks in New Jersey.
