Sammamish (Wash.) Skyline receiver Jake Knecht will try to the help the Spartans win their second straight state championship this weekend and he's seen here in action against Bothell and Issaquah, the team they'll face on Friday night...

One of the unsung heroes for Sammamish (Wash.) Skyline this year has been receiver Jake Knecht.

Knecht is another one of those receivers who just always seems to be able to make not just plays, but big plays. He's a gutsy receiver, not afraid to go for the ball in traffic. At the same time, Knecht always does a good job of getting open.

He's surprisingly elusive and in the open field, tends to be able to get behind the secondary. While he doesn't get the attention that some of his teammates do, quarterback Jake Heaps has said on numerous occasions that Knecht is one of the most underrated players around.

Here are clips of Knecht against Issaquah and Bothell from October.
