Schirmer had 39 tackles, four for a loss, three sacks, 15 hurries, a blocked field goal and an interception for Centennial last season after transferring from Damien.

He also has offers from Arizona State, Stanford, Texas and UCLA among others. Schirmer is the fifth player from California in Cal’s 2027 recruiting class and the third defensive lineman.

Schirmer blocked the game-winning field goal attempt by Mater Dei in Centennial’s Division 1 semifinal win.

Schirmer’s massive offseason sees him continue to rise up rankings and recruiting boards now ranked #54 overall and holding 14 D1 offers, many from high profile programs. 6’5” 250 lbs. he’s got ideal size, length, and growth potential for defensive line. He’s got an athletic build to him with plenty of room to add mass without sacrificing those movement skills. He’s got great initial quickness off the ball with an explosive first step to gain positional leverage before the play develops. He’s violent at the POA with excellent natural strength and power to disengage from blockers and bring heavy contact as a tackler. Despite his size, he bends well in the hips, knees, and ankles allowing him to redirect and chase in pursuit. Expect him to keep pulling in high level offers and climbing the PRZ rankings as he develops.

Schirmer was offered by UNLV last Saturday.

He had two sacks, two fumble recoveries and a blocked field goal for Damien last season and has since transferred to Centennial.

“He is very polished and violent and has the ideal length and size for the position at that level with plenty of growth potential over the next two years,” said Paul Gregorian in his evaluation of Schirmer.

Arizona State and Notre Dame have also offered him recently in addition to USC and UCLA among others.

Schirmer is one of the more rapid rising defenders in the region heading into the Spring, and is a no brainer power 4 caliber prospect that has seen his recruitment pickup and should see another slew of offers roll in during the Spring evaluation period. He is very polished and violent and has the ideal length and size for the position at that level with plenty of growth potential over the next two years. Making the transfer to powerhouse Corona Centennial from Damien, he has had a productive off-season and has seen offers roll in from USC, SDSU, Cal, Colorado State and Sac State.

Schirmer is one of the top players in the entire state in the 2027 class, and has the ideal length and size for the P4 level along the defensive line. He is a still a raw and developing prospect but is extremely powerful and violent at the point of attack and moves well for his size when collapsing the pocket and chasing plays backside. He has natural bend/ankle mobility and is twitchy in the short area while able to win with both speed and power at the POA. Schirmer offers good position versatility at the next level and already has a college ready build as a Sophomore. He holds offers from USC, Colorado State, Arizona, UCLA, Cal and SDSU.
