A first-team QB last season, the 5-8, 150-pound senior led the Vikings to a state title. He racked up 3,751 total yards and 51 TDs, including 24 through the air and 27 on the ground. He also had 69 tackles and five INTs on defense, and served as the Vikings’ punter.

“He’s an electric player,” Wilder coach Kyle DalSoglio said. “He makes it basically impossible to stop them offensively.”
