While we are loaded with top-flight football players in south Florida, there are always those who slip beneath the lens of the camera or pen of those who evaluate and promote players.
As we know, this is such a talent-rich area, where prospects tend to get lost in the shuffle, and while many are overlooked to satisfy the hype of the major apparel brands, we have always been here to elevate those amazing prospects – by watching them live.
During the off season, once a week – away from our spotlights and player and team profiles – we bring you athletes in each class.
Today, once again, here is a look at some rising seniors – in the Class of 2021:
Paulo Adams, WR, Davie Nova. While we introduced you to rising senior quarterback Zach Robinson, this week, we bring you one of his receivers, and there are very few who have worked harder than this young man to elevate himself into a prospect.
Like many rising players, Paulo is someone who just needs that opportunity to showcase his skills.

Zackery Baldwin, CB/WR, Miami Edison. As the off season has produced some quality football talent, we take you back to last fall – when the Red Raiders pulled a huge upset over Miami Carol City, and it was this amazing talent who helped to secure the win.
Head Coach Luther Campbell, who has had the chance to coach and develop many standout players, believes this young man is the next game-changer.

Jacob Golan, QB, Miami Dr. Krop. Winning the first ever Miami-Dade GMAC Independent title showcased a number of elite players that head coach Tommy Caporale and the Lightning had on the field this past season.
Jacob turned out to be a huge surprise, with an accurate arm and plenty of athletic ability and led the program all season long – with little fanfare.

Tamaris James, WR, Coral Gables. Yet another emerging standout that head coach and Coral Gables alum Roger Pollard has on his roster, moving into the 2020 season.
This is a quick and athletic pass catcher who has the kind of talent that will be uncovered over the next season – when play starts.

Jarius Johnson, DE/OLB, Miramar. Another of the always talented football players the Patriots have on the roster. Here is a versatile player that has a chance to be very special in 2020.
His size and athletic ability will make this young man a huge attraction for a team that figures to be one of the top players in 7A this coming season.

Rashaud Knapper, S, Miami Southridge. As the Spartans continue to build, there are a few seniors and juniors that will be needed to help first year head coach Tim Neal and this program moving forward.

Lucas Londos, OG, Davie Western. Coming over from Cypress Bay in this off season, here is a very talented big man who continues to put in the time so the college coaches will have the opportunity to watch him during his final season.
As interest will pick up, the opportunity to stay in shape and continue to elevate his game will make this prospect someone to watch for head coach Adam Ratkevich and the Wildcats.

Evan Saifman, WR, South Plantation. Burst onto the scene as a sophomore and has continued to work hard and impress for head coach Cecil McNair and the Paladins.
Has super hands, runs tremendous routes and helps this program continue to jump into the spotlight. Will certainly be one of the prospects to continue to keep an eye on when play finally begins.

R.J. Sorensen, DE/DE, Davie University School. With a number of big time colleges on this young man since he arrived this past season, there is no doubt how talented this young man is – and will be – moving forward.
There are a number of big time colleges who want this talented football player to lineup for them – and they will continue to offer right up until National Signing Day.

Leo Zuazo, PK, Miami Northwestern. From the first day he began kicking, there was never a doubt how successful this quality prospects would be. Huge explosion and accuracy have been his calling card – and winning a state title this past season for head coach Max Edwards and the Bulls only illustrate the exposure he continues to receive.
Has an opportunity to be among the best in the state this coming season, and if you have watched him kick, you already know how special he is.
