There is little debate that the football team at Camas (Wash.) High School boasts one of the most talent-filled rosters in the state of Washington for the upcoming season. The Papermakers are led offensively by the likes of QB Reilly Hennessey, OL Drew Clarkson, and athletes Nate Beasley and Zach Eagle, and others. But there is a player on the defensive side of…
Sometimes being a skill position player can be a difficult task, especially one who plays tight end. The tight end position in and of itself isn’t that difficult, but the job of a tight end can be. For one, you need to be equally enthused about blocking as you are about going out and catching passes. Often times that means sacrificing stats for the greater…
There is no shortage of impact players on the football team at Federal Way (Wash.) High School. Guys ranging from Chico McClatcher to Keenan Curran to Jay-Tee Tuili are the names you know, but there is another player emerging for the Eagles who could make a splash this fall in WR/DB Ryan Gnoinsky. Gnoinsky first caught our eye at the Barton Football Academy Combine in…
Sammamish (Wash.) Skyline defensive end Josh Wright is coming off a junior season that saw him earn All-KingCo honors as one of the top sack-leaders in the state. In addition to rushing the passer, Wright has shown that he can be equally effective against the run. As the offseason has progressed, recruiting for the 6-foot-2, 220-pound Wright has started to pick up, though somehow he…
When you think about the Arlington (Wash.) duo of linebacker Nate Lewis and wide receiver Max Gray, two words come to mind – “never satisfied”. From a team perspective, the pair embodies the attitude of the Arlington program, a program not satisfied with last season’s first-round playoff exit. The Eagles are looking to build on that success of last year and make a run at…
We can’t say enough good things about all the participants in Sunday’s Northwest College Showcase at Bellevue’s Interlake HS. Dozens of players performed well, and should be proud of themselves for the level at which they competed. Several attendees representing the state of Washington had standout performances on the big stage that are worth recognizing. In no particular order, these individuals were “elite performers” in the QB/WR/DB group. Quarterbacks Kevin…
The list of dominant two-way linemen in Washington’s 2014 class keeps getting longer and longer. On Sunday at RDAF’s NW College Showcase, we got to see yet another player who gets it done at a high level on both sides of the trenches, in Lake Stevens (Wash.) big man, Evan Miksch. The 6-foot-3, 245-pounder was a 1st Team All-League performer last year on…

Last week, our own Jordan Johnson told you about the three big time 2015 offensive tackle prospects in the state of Washington – Henry Roberts, Calvin Throckmorton and Trey Adams. Coincidently, days later, both Throckmorton and Adams picked up University of Washington offers at the Huskies’ Rising Star camp. Well on Sunday, Adams wasted no time jumping on UW’s offer and committed to the Purple…
There may not be a more under-the-radar line prospect in the state of Washington than Snohomish (Wash.) Glacier Peak big man, Nick Hensley. Now, certainly “under-the-radar” is a relative term when describing a player who stands at 6-foot-2, 250-pounds and was named 1st Team All-Wesco 3A South, 1st Team All-Area and 2nd Team All-State like Hensley was. Hensley has started at least one…
