is having the high school career that a lot of quarterbacks dream of as he just led Trinity to their third consecutive 6A state title, all with him as their starting quarterback. As a junior, Johnson completed 164/233 passes for 2,763 yards, 51 touchdowns, and only three interceptions in 14 games. Johnson has shown the ability to handle pressure, maneuvering in the pocket as necessary to avoid opposing pass rushers while keeping his eyes down the field to find the open receiver. He is also a very accurate passer, showing the ability to use his arm strength to zip passes into tight coverage, giving only his intended receiver a chance to make a play on the ball. Zane also scored one rushing touchdown this past season. Johnson currently holds seven Division I offers and I expect more to come his way as a lot of eyes will be on him this offseason.

continued his undefeated playoff record last week, leading his team to a semifinal victory over St. Xavier. Johnson completed 12/15 passes for 272 yards and six touchdowns. He was very impressive under pressure, showing the ability to stand tall and maneuver in the pocket when necessary while still keeping his eyes down the field to find the open receiver. Johnson also showed off his strong arm which he was able to use to lead his receivers down the field with ease in the deep passing game. Zane currently holds offers from Akron, Eastern Kentucky, Appalachian State, Miami (OH), and Southern Mississippi, and I expect more to continue to stack up for him. Johnson and the Shamrocks will be looking to three-peat as 6A State Champions this week against South Warren.

is a strong young passer for Trinity who will only get better. While he lacks ideal height, Johnson has a quick trigger, displays excellent accuracy and can deliver the ball with excellent timing and rhythm. Johnson is also effective when throwing on the move. Several on-target passes were dropped by his receivers, yet he showed strong resiliency under duress and managed to lead his team well against a talented Carmel defensive front.

Zane also scored one rushing touchdown last season. Johnson currently holds offers from Miami (OH), Appalachian State, Eastern Kentucky, and Southern Mississippi, and I expect more to come his way as he is a Division I caliber quarterback prospect.
