Donavan Davis South Charleston High School DB
Donavan has been creating havoc for quarterbacks in the last few weeks. He has great instincts and always finds himself near the football on both sides of the ball. His athleticism helps him stay with most receivers in the state and his intelligence into baiting the quarterback and reading their eyes is helping him create turnovers for South Charleston.
John Covert John Covert 6'1" | 215 lbs | LB Winfield | 2021 State WV Winfield High High School LB
John has been the staple of Winfield’s defense and has shown that he can handle that. He has great instincts and plays the game tough and gets downhill fast. His tackling is consistent and his pass coverage is very underrated as well. He creates negative plays and continues to show why he’s a top linebacker in the state this year.
Nemo Roberts Nemo Roberts 6'1" | 265 lbs | DL Cabell Midland | 2022 State WV Cabell Midland High School DL
Nemo has been on a tear since last year during his sophomore season. He gets double and triple teamed at times because of how consistent he wreaks havoc in the backfield. He’s explosive and shows that he is a top defensive lineman in the state this year. He’s very athletic and uses his athleticism and speed to outrush offensive lineman. He moves around across the defensive line because they key off of him but he still makes plays. Look for Nemo to continue to dominate in his junior year along with his senior year as he’ll be the best defensive lineman in the state.
