The last few years Oregon had been a punching bag for multiple other state’s during the winter showcase, losing by a combined score of 91-6. This is something that we wanted to make sure did not continue,…
Highlight Videos: Conner Baumann, Drew Sample, Bennett Long, Calvin Throckmorton, Paul Wells When you hear about Bellevue, Washington one of the first things that comes to mind is the nation’s top football team in the Wolverines out of Bellevue HS. Everyone in the northwest should be proud to have the best football team in America in our own backyard. That said, don’t sleep on…
Lets just get this out of the way early and reiterate that Kellen Strahm (6-0 165 So. ATH/DB) is the brother of 2012 Oregon Player of the Year Connor Strahm (6-2 215 Sr.). Sheldon (14-0) just won the Class 6A state title, and the oldest Strahm will go down as one of the best players in state history. The magical run that took place this…
Trent Werner Highlight Video Coming into 2013 one of Oregon’s top dual threat, multi sport athletes is Trent Werner (6-1 190 Jr. ATH/S) of Jesuit. He is hands down one of the best overall skill players in the state, but is sometimes overshadowed by some of the other high profile talent at the high school. Junior teammates Joey Alfieri (6-3 220 Jr. FB/LB) and…
Liam Talty Highlight Video One of Oregon’s top underclassmen out of Sheldon HS in Eugene is Liam Talty (6-4 215 Jr. DE). The kid showed up at our elite events last off season in Portland and never looked back. At that time people didn’t really know who he was, but he changed that quickly. This past season the Sheldon Irish won the 2012 state title, and Talty played…

Jake Hoffman Highlights There are a variety of reasons that players get overlooked coming out of the Pacific Northwest if we are talking recruiting. Jake Hoffman (6-0 170 Jr. ATH) of North Central HS in Spokane is one of the most unselfish kids you are ever going to meet. The 2011 and 2012 GSL All Purpose Player of the Year, was shown a great…
If you didn’t notice the Southridge Skyhawks won the Metro League title again this season, and did it with a young and inexperienced line. This point is specifically stressed as they had to take on up front casts that were senior dominated, and twice their size in Aloha and Jesuit. Cox (6-3 240 Jr. OL) was the junior leader of the group that will be…
Anyone familiar with High School Football in Oregon will tell you that North Medford is a tradition rich school that has had a tough past decade. We are big fans of what Head Coach Bill Singler has done over at South Medford, and now we see a Black Tornado program that is turning things around and potentially getting back to old form. This past season…
Mike Padden Highlight Video Erik Rottsolk Highlight Video In October I did an article about the Lakeside School football team and their love for the game, Link Here. While doing followup for that article, WR/DB Mike Padden (Jr, 6-3 190) showed everything I was expecting to see. He was taller than almost everyone on the field and had the raw physical tools that you like in a young WR….
