A standout PrepRedzoneMN Showcase performer, Mankato West’s junior DB/RB Stihl Koberoski Stihl Koberoski 5'8" | 180 lbs | DB Mankato West | 2026 State MN is the younger brother of Augustana University freshman DB Brady and brings a lot of the same dynamic ability, competitiveness, and physicality to the gridiron that I saw in his brother a year or two ago. We’re going to bump his position to DB in the upcoming rankings update, as Koberoski is putting some good reps on tape as a safety after primarily playing RB as a sophomore. Koberoski posted 61 total tackles (31 solo), an INT, and a 47-yard receiving TD in 2024 as a junior, and is a multi-sport athlete who also runs track and wrestles and is a weight room monster who reports a 280 lb. bench, 405 lb. squat, 203 lb. power clean, and 595×2 hex bar deadlift. Koberoski displays solid footwork, patience, and short-area quickness and COD ability in man coverage and is a good 1v1 tackler as the high defender who can tackle in space as well as when coming downhill and halting ball carriers in the hole. The junior recognizes and triggers on the football quickly and demonstrates good defensive range and speed, runs the alley well, attacks the football with proper pursuit leverage and angles. He can accelerate and get up to top speed quickly, which helps when he’s getting in and out of his breaks in coverage. Good recovery speed too, now that he needed it very often. Koberoski is also a really tough matchup for opposing LBs and safeties out of the backfield as a pass catcher, showing noticeable burst and good ball-tracking ability.
