Future Horned Frogs Star Dominates in Win

2026 WR Brock Boyd (6'1, 165) - Southlake Carroll: The TCU commit stood out in a 48-7 win over previously unbeaten Justin Northwest, hauling in four catches for 135 yards and two touchdowns, averaging an impressive 33.75 yards per catch. Boyd combines game-breaking speed with reliable hands, making tough catches look effortless. - Greg Powers

New Position? No Problem!

2025 TE/DE Jack Van Dorselaer (6'5, 240): The four-star Tennessee commit, who is slated to play tight end in the SEC, has transitioned to defensive end and has been impressive. With a quick first step and disciplined technique, he consistently pressures quarterbacks and tracks down ball carriers, whether they try to run inside or escape to the perimeter. - Greg Powers

Under the Radar Star Emerging in Arlington

2025 DB Jordyn Criss (6'2, 175) - Arlington Seguin: Criss has the ideal blend of athleticism and size for a Division I cornerback. With offers from Texas State, Lamar and East Texas A&M, Criss excels in press coverage and isn’t afraid to be physical, as shown when he shut down a receiver on a screen pass. He's one of Seguin's top players and has room to grow. - Carter Yates

Young Defender Stars in Four Overtime Thriller

2027 DT Kadrian Redmond (6'4, 280) - Lake Dallas: Redmond is a name to know. He showed impressive strength and handwork, shedding blocks for the Falcons in their heartbreaking 46-44, four-overtime loss to Frisco Panther Creek on Friday. He, at times, dominated even when being double-teamed and showed outstanding athleticism for a player of his size. Redmond has a chance to develop into one of the state's top interior defensive linemen in the Class of 2027. - Matt Stepp

Elite Playmaker in the Alamo City

2026 WR Jordan Clay (6'4, 200) - San Antonio Madison: This towering prospect showcased why he’s one of the top outside receivers in the state. He made an impressive jump ball touchdown catch during Madison’s 41-28 loss to San Antonio Johnson. Clay consistently used his large frame to make contested catches, attacking the football with outstanding athleticism. While he didn’t show much route versatility in this game, he drew constant safety help when lined up outside and was often bracketed by three defenders on plays over the middle. - Matt Stepp
