Sycamore enters the game with a 6-0 record and thoughts of
winning a conference title and making a deep run in the playoffs. They are led
by Michigan tight end pledge A.J. Williams (6-foot-6, 260-pounds) who is one of
the more impressive athletes in the 2012 class. Oak Hills has its own
Michigan pledge in offensive lineman Caleb Stacey. At 6-foot-4, 280-pounds,
Stacey is a hard nose run blocker who looks to drive his man down the field on
each snap. He is joined by two under-the-radar offensive linemen in twin
brothers Dustin and Derrek Ross. Both players have scored 33 on their ACT’s and
stand 6-foot-4, 285-pounds. Several Ivy League schools want the Ross twins and a
few Mid American Conference programs are showing interest as well.
Friday: Middletown Fenwick at Chaminade Julienne at
7:30 p.m.
Fenwick is powered by senior quarterback (Miami Ohio
pledge) Austin Gearing who turned down BCS programs for the chance to be a
college quarterback. Gearing is a great athlete who can hurt teams with his arm
and legs. This season Gearing has passed for 651 yards on 38 completions and
eight touchdowns while running for 587 yards and 10 scores in helping Fenwick to
a perfect 6-0 record. Chaminade Julienne has 2013 middle linebacker
Darrien Howard. At 6-foot-1, 235-pounds, Howard has been a starter since his
freshman year and is playing linebacker and fullback this season. Several
programs from Ohio State, Michigan, and Michigan State have shown early

Thursday:
Overland Park (KS) Blue Valley West vs. Roeland Park (KS) Bishop Miege
Prospects to watch: Junior quarterback Montel Cozart and senior wideout Tre Parmalee - son of Kansas City Chiefs tight ends coach and former NFL standout Bernie Parmalee - form a potent duo for Bishop Miege. Cozart is a dual-threat quarterback who is completing more than 60-percent of his passes this season, and while Parmalee is somewhat undersized he's a slot receiver prospect with great quickness, hands and route-running skills.
