With a nearly identical season to his teammate Witt, Zach Nelson Zach Nelson 6'3" | 195 lbs | WR/DB Tri-Center | 2026 State IA also benefitted mightily from Tri-Center’s air raid offense with Harder under center. Nelson finished the season just behind Witt in almost every statistical category, grabbing 73 catches for 1,118 yards and beating him out in touchdowns with 13.

Three inches taller and nearly 20 pounds heavier than Witt, Nelson served as more of a true X-receiver for Tri-Center. A deep-ball threat that was a “go up and get it” wideout with strong hands, Nelson can also reach out and grab one-handed catches.
