Dore may be a lot better than we expect, very few Freshmen have 4 minutes of varsity film. Not only does he have a boatload of varsity experience under his belt but on the 2022 MIAA defending champion defense. Emilie more than held his own in the center of this great defense. He poses the strength and technique to make a larger impact on this defense this year, as he continues to grow expect some coaches to begin to take notice.

Moses has been catching momentum this offseason by showing off his ability and talent at camps and combines. I had the opportunity to see him in action at The TCA Gauntlet: Linemen Showcase earlier this offseason. Moses has a high motor and brings intensity every rep. He plays with a chip on his shoulder even though he is usually the youngest in the room.
Had a fun time today at WV university football camp. Dominated the day and got some great coaching @ResiFootball @CoachJaxDL #babybull#darookie pic.twitter.com/O47yJLFUK7

Baldwin is a very talented young corner; I had the opportunity to see him in action this past weekend at the Imagine Athlete Showcase in MD. He is a competitor all the way to the echo of the whistle; he plays through the ball even when the receiver gets his hands on the ball first. Byron demonstrated good technique, feet, and stays engaged with receivers whether the ball is actually coming or not.

Dunbar | 2025
State

Hart is a young athlete but is a very familiar face already. Hart has been hitting the 7-on-7 and camp circuit hard this offseason. I caught up with hart at the Offense-Defense 7v7 at George Mason University, he played at a high level displaying his rangy build and coverage radius. Tyler recently transferred from Archbishop Curley to defending state champ Dunbar and followed the footsteps of his brother Tony Hart Tony Hart 6'2" | 185 lbs | DB Dunbar | 2023 State MD who currently holds multiple offers. Already at 6’2 170lbs Hart will contribute to Dunbar’s potential championship 2-peat run in 2022.

In 2021 Cooley made 1st Team All-County and tagged along side Duke Commit Dillon Dunathan Dillon Dunathan 6'2" | 230 lbs | LB Damascus | 2023 State MD at LB. Cooley may be the next D1 interior defensive player for Damascus. He’s a sure tackler and possesses the awareness to swipe at the ball during group tackles. He is as athletic as the next backer, in a 7on7 game he made an acrobatic catch over a DB that raised eyebrows, not usually something your typical linebacker can do.

Here we have a true hard hitting run stopper. Young played in all 5 playoff games for the Wise Pumas showing the trust and expectation the pumas have in this young backer. Previously Young played for a talented Maryland Heat youth football organization who traveled across the country to play against the best competition in the nation. Expect Young to step in and impact games during the regular season immediately, he contributes at linebacker and on the kickoff coverage team.
