of the North Brunswick Radiers. The Raiders flaunted the ability to run or pass all over opponents with ease last season. Wieczcerzak’s presence had a lot to do with that.
Wieczerzak is a stalwart when it comes to pass protection. He is sure of his slide steps in protection and does not concede his inside gap. His feet keep a consistent distance/base when he steps. This allows him to keep his assignment in front of him at all times. He also has a sense of when to turn his pass block into a drive block.
When running the ball, he does a nice job of getting hands on the defender and takes confident, quick first steps. He likes to play to the whistle and is always looking to finish his blocks with a defender on their back.
Wieczerzak can take his game to the next level by working his hands in both run blocking and pass protection. He must always fight for inside leverage when run blocking to control defenders; and when pass blocking he needs to punch and recoil to keep defenders at bay.
For North Brunswick to continue their run of recent success, Wieczerzak must be a big part of what they do.
