Domenic Rockey 6-3 185 Jr. QB Auburn Mountainview As we have noted over the past couple months at Northwest Elite Index, the state of Washington is loaded with talented signal-callers this year and one that flew under-the-radar until he put up huge numbers as a junior this past fall was Auburn Mountainview’s Domenic Rockey. At 6’3″, 185 pounds, Rockey has enough height to see his receivers pretty easily and he…
Even though he plays at a smaller school, make no mistake, Cle Elum-Roslyn’s Jake Gall has the talent to play major college football. The talented two-way star used his outstanding size (6’0, 207) and speed (4.6) combination to post a team-leading 1,152 yards rushing on just 88 carries (a 13.1 yard per carry average) and 18 touchdowns while also leading the Warriors with 157 tackles (81 solo), five sacks and…
A player who moved to the Pacific Northwest last summer and showed why he should be considered a rising star this offseason is Auburn Mountainview LB/DE Nicholas Aumua. At 6’3″, 240 pounds, Aumua has the size necessary to be a factor on either side of the ball, but with his outstanding first step and non-stop motor, schools seem to like what he brings off the edge and that is where…
(Nick Santa 6-3 240 Jr. OL/DL Bellevue) Northwest Elite Index caught up with Bellevue DE Nick Santa and the talented two-way star filled us in on where things stand… “Things have been going well for me this year so far,” Santa said recently. “I’ve been hitting the weights and running, working on my pad-level. Basically all of the stuff you need to work on every year. I just want to…
Darrin Laufasa 6-2 225 RB/LB Juanita HSp The state of Washington is loaded at the linebacker position in 2013, and one player who is poised to be in the discussion for tops at the position will be Juanita (Kirkland) LB Darrin Laufasa, a 6’1″, 225-pounder who is just starting to get back to full health after a foot injury kept him from reaching his full potential last season. “Darrin broke…
Sefo Liufau 6-4 220 Jr. QB Bellarmine Prep Bellarmine Prep (Tacoma) QB Sefo Liufau, one of the top signal-callers in the Pacific Northwest this year, received some good news on Monday when he received his first offer. “Colorado offered me today,” an excited Liufau told Northwest Elite Index. “It didn’t really come out of the blue because I had been talking to their staff, getting to know them, for a…
Kickers don’t get a lot of attention from recruiting services or fans during the year, but ask several nationally ranked college football teams from this past season how important it is to have a kicker who can make a clutch kick late in a game. One of the top prep kickers, not only on the west coast, but likely the entire nation this season will be Mount Si (Snoqualmie, Wa.)…
(Trayon McNairy 6-1 205 Jr. LB Juanita HS) A player who really burst onto the scene in the state of Washington last season was Juanita (Kirkland) LB Trayon McNairy, and with his continued improvement he could be one of the fastest rising recruits in the Evergreen State. “When we finally got him up at the varsity level last year, he was so raw he didn’t even know how to carry…

A team loaded with big-time prospects this year is Federal Way and one of the leaders on their defense this past season was LB Rod Jones Jr. This offseason he’s been hard at work while also competing against some of the top talent in the state. “I’ve been hitting the Barton Camps a couple of times this winter and it’s been great from a competition standpoint,” Jones told NEI recently….
