Much of the talk for the Saints’ offense was their dominant run game which finished with over 3800 total rushing yards in 2025, but Porter Schwiesow Porter Schwiesow 5'11" | 155 lbs | QB/DB St. Ansgar | 2028 State IA proved to be a more-than-capable signal caller for the offense. Schwiesow completed over 66% of his passes for 1091 yards, 16 TDs, and only 3 INTs while rushing for 125 yards and 2 TDs. There is certainly room for improvement, as Schwiesow struggled in the state championship when the offense was forced to abandon the run and lean more on the pass, but Schwiesow flashed as a natural drop-back passer who made solid progressions and an underrated arm that was able to drop passes into the bucket for his receivers. Schwiesow played very well as a sophomore, and as he improves his passing mechanics, St. Ansgar’s offense may become that much more dangerous as they become more well-balanced.
