Players are getting an idea of what is working for them as far as their training and diets are concerned. At the same time, new and veteran coaches are figuring out what may or may not be working for them. Whether it is the drills they do, or the scrimmage games played coaches and players are fine tuning their games on the regular. In this series I will be covering as many schools as I can, from as many different classes as I can. ln this article we will take a look at the class 7A Little Rock Southwest Gryphons.

Ter’Quan Anderson Ter’Quan Anderson 5'9" | 150 lbs | WR Little Rock Southwest | 2024 State AR is by definition a ball hawk. He is very good in pass coverage, hardly ever allowing a completion. Anderson sticks to his man like glue, causing headaches in the opposing teams passing game. Ter’Quan is also very dependable when defending the run, he is not scared to square himself up and make a big tackle. Anderson is a 5’9″ 151lb defensive back that is looking to help take this Gryphon defense to the next level.

Marsel Rogers Marsel Rogers 5'9" | 175 lbs | LB Little Rock Southwest | 2024 State AR is a middle linebacker that flies all over the field. At 5’9″ 180lbs, Rogers runs a 4.9 40-yard dash allowing him to get where he needs to go quickly. Marsel has a high motor that does not end until the whistle blows. He makes great reads pre-snap and displays solid vision. Marsel is a danger to his opponents, whether in the passing or the rushing game. Rogers and this Southwest defense look to make big strides in the fall.

c/o 2024
Kevon shows great instincts on the football field. Jones is a 5’9″ 140lb free safety that loves contact. He flies around the field, going sideline to sideline making plays. Whether in pass coverage, or in the rushing game, Kevon is not scared to make a bit hit. He does a great job at breaking up passes as well as stuffing the run. Kevon and the Gryphon defense are going to make some noise in the 2022 season.
Sherrod Shepherd #55
OL
c/o 2023
Sherrod Shepherd is an offensive lineman who has an awful lot of power. He is a mauling style of lineman that loves getting his hands dirty. You will find Shepherd in the trenches, usually standing over his opponent while they are on the ground. Sherrod is a protector on that offensive line that very rarely gets beat. Shepherd has all of the tools he needs to take his game to the next level. The 2022 season looks to be a big one for this Gryphon offense.
