<p><strong>Coach&#8217;s Comment:</strong> Issac missed some time and later played thru some ankle issues. Great speed excellent hands and route running. Very instinctive finding proper space vs zone coverages. Has put in alot of work since last season. Great range and speed as DB. Draws opponents best WR weekly. Looking for a big year in 2026.</p>

<p><b>Coach&#8217;s comment:</b> McClair possesses great athletic ability coupled with a keen sense for the game. He was a problem for Defenses however we used him and became a top level pass rusher and run stopper from his Defensive End position. He has a high motor and was a relentless fixture on our Defensive front. On offense, Cameron was a key component to helping us score points. He can generate tough yards on the ground and air it out when necessary. He was also a key fixture on special teams by helping to pin teams deep and change field position when needed from his punting role. We are hoping for more of the same in his senior year on &#8220;The Hill&#8221;. Keep your eyes on him, McClair is one to watch.</p>

<p><b>Coach&#8217;s comment: </b>Harrison Ortiz is a promising young quarterback with the size, athleticism, and experience that make him a player to keep an eye on in Pennsylvania&#8217;s 2026 season. At 6-foot-2, 190 pounds, Ortiz already has two years of varsity starting experience and shows confidence operating the offense.</p>

On film, Ortiz displays good pocket awareness, throws with solid touch on intermediate routes, and isn&#8217;t afraid to challenge defenses vertically when opportunities arise. He keeps his eyes downfield while extending plays and shows the poise expected from a multi-year starter. His 4.8-second speed also gives him enough athleticism to escape pressure and create outside the pocket when needed.</p>
<p data-start="911" data-end="1304" data-is-last-node="" data-is-only-node="">A 3.8 GPA, 3rd Team All-Conference, and Midd-Penn Honorable Mention selection highlight the complete package both on and off the field. As a Class of 2028 quarterback, Ortiz has plenty of upside, and continued growth in decision-making, consistency, and arm strength could make him one of the rising signal-callers to watch in the Mid-Penn Conference over the next two seasons.</p>

<p><strong>Coach&#8217;s Comment:</strong> Christian is a foundational piece of our trenches this upcoming fall, returning as a dominant two-way starter at offensive tackle and defensive end. At 6’4” and 280 pounds, he imposes his will with a physical brand of football on both sides of the ball. Don’t let his size fool you, though—he is an elite athlete who moves exceptionally well for his frame. On offense, while he is highly effective when pulling out in space, he is even more devastating as a down-blocker, completely clearing out defenders at the point of attack.</p>
<p>Defensively, he plays a disciplined game, holding down the edge and funneling plays back inside to his teammates. Christian’s stock rose week by week last year as his confidence grew, and we anticipate a massive season out of him this fall. He is already drawing significant FCS interest, and it wouldn’t be shocking to see his first division-one offer arrive very soon.</p>

<p><strong>Primary Position:</strong> Wide Receiver</p>
<p><strong>Secondary Position:</strong> Safety</p>
<p><strong>Jersey Number:</strong> 6</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/23717470/oliver-green" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hudl Highlights</a>:</strong></p>
<p><strong>Coach&#8217;s comment:</strong> Oliver is a versatile playmaker who impacts the game on both sides of the ball. At 6-foot-1 and 167 pounds, the Columbia standout has the size and athleticism to be a matchup problem at wide receiver while also thriving as a ball-hawking safety. </p>
<p>Offensively, he hauled in 11 receptions for 148 yards and a touchdown, averaging 13.5 yards per catch. </p>
<p>Defensively, Green was even more impressive, recording 56 total tackles, four interceptions, and two pass breakups, showing outstanding instincts and playmaking ability in the secondary. </p>
<p>A four-year starter with a 3.6 GPA, Green also excels in the classroom, earning Silver Academic All-EPA Team honors, while receiving Honorable Mention Lancaster-Lebanon League All-Star recognition and Second Team All-Star honors. He&#8217;s a well-rounded student-athlete with plenty of upside, and his best football is still ahead of him.</p>

<p><strong>Coaches comments:</strong> Jamil was a key part of both our offensive and defensive lines. In addition to his stats from last year, he ate up a lot of double teams and did a great job not allowing linemen to get to our linebackers. He will need to anchor our OL and DL this season as well!</p>

<p><strong>Coach&#8217;s Comment:</strong> Edward emerged as a surprise two-way starter on the offensive line during his junior season and continued to mature throughout the year. As the season progressed, he quickly developed into one of our most consistent and dependable linemen. The experience he gained last year has prepared him to take the next step in his development.</p>
<p>We expect Edward to build on that momentum and become a force on both sides of the ball this season. His toughness, consistency, and growing confidence will make him an important piece of our team this year.</p>
