Tausinga announced his commitment to UNLV in early February. PRZ NV’s fourth-ranked OL prospect in the 2026 class was one of the top prospects left on the board after the Signing Day period and held offers from the Rebels and Sacramento St. He’s a big, powerful body that figures to slot into an interior role at the next level.

Tausinga is one of the top available offensive linemen in his class holding offers from UNLV and Sacramento St. The #4-OL was a stalwart RT for Liberty this fall after transferring from Bishop Gorman ahead of his senior season. He’s a powerful run blocker at 6’5″/335 that moves defenders off the ball and packs a strong initial punch. He controls defenders with his hands, looks to punish targets in space, and finishes his blocks to the ground. Look for Tausinga to add some late offers ahead of February’s Signing Day.

Tausinga is another Bishop Gorman offensive lineman that’s waited his turn to be a starter behind last season’s elite senior group and will be looking to earn his first all-state selection in the fall. The 6’4″/320 senior picked up his first couple offers from UNLV and Sacramento St. this offseason and should continue to add to that list with a strong senior season. Tausinga is a top candidate for a breakout season in 2025.

Tausinga just picked up his first offer from Sacramento St. after a strong performance at the Hornets’ Rising Stars Camp this week. The fifth-ranked offensive lineman in PRZ NV’s 2026 rankings has been flying under the radar mostly due to getting limited reps and film behind one of the best OL units in the country last season. He offers major upside in his combination of size (6’4″/300) and physicality and should be due for a breakout senior season in the fall. He’s powerful and precise with his hands in dealing with rushers and possesses the strength to move DTs off the spot. Tausinga has his recruiting stock trending up coming into the summer months.
After a great conversation with @coachkmr I’ve been blessed to receive an offer to The Sacramento State. All glory to God! #AG2G #HomeTownHero #JURY pic.twitter.com/hPrdOxtpex

Tuasinga was selected at the top left tackle after a great one-on-one showing against several of the state’s best edge rushers. Tausinga has great size, strength, and bend in his pass pro. It is only a matter of time before Tausinga receives his first D1 offers. Look for Tausinga to continue to turn heads in the camp season.

Tausinga is another elite talent hidden in the Vegas Valley. Tausinga has great hand vioolance, explosion off the ball, size, bend, and stregnth to make him a D1 Tackle propsect. It is hard to find his combination of size, strength, and athleticism making Tausinga one of the top prospects on the west coast without an offer.

Tausinga has a legit D1 frame and can move well off the ball. He is one of the most talented linemen in the Nevada class of 2026 and has flown under the radar, sitting behind the elite Bishop Gorman O-line. Tausinga has reported to have left Bishop Gorman, but wherever he ends up, Tevita will dominate and make a name for himself.

Tausinga showed promising flashes in a backup role for one of the most talented OL units in the country this season. Strong, powerful OT at 6’4″/300 that moves well and possesses all the physical tools of a future P-4 offensive lineman. Has the frame and anchor to hold up against power rushers on the edge and flashes some focused technique in his pass sets. Tausinga should continue to put his name on the radar and climb Nevada’s 2026 rankings as he works his way into a starting role next season.
