4A SPSL PASSING

AJ Tuivaiave, Graham-Kapowsin: By all accounts, shouldn't take long for this stout (6-3, 205), strong-armed ninth grader to evolve as league's next great quarterback.

Projected 2024 statistics: 2,100 yards, 22 touchdowns

4A SPSL RUSHING

Steele Isaacs, Sumner: Was 1,000-yard rusher as a backup to Matthew Spurbeck (1,090 yards, 12 TDs) last fall, and Spartans love to tenderize defenses with power run game.

Projected 2024 statistics: 1,450 yards, 19 touchdowns

4A SPSL RECEIVING

Parker Mady, Curtis: He's heady. He's twitchy. He's brash. And he's productive (975 yards, 13 TDs in 2023). Viks will move him all over formation to make sure he gets open looks.

Projected 2024 statistics: 1,150 yards, 14 touchdowns

4A SPSL SACKS

Zaydrius Rainey-Sale, Bethel: Top 2025 recruit loves backfield hunting, and he'll make a few splash blitz plays - including sacks - per game at linebacker for defense that will need it.

Projected 2024 statistics: 14.5 sacks.
