Deonte Hill - LB - Clawson
Hill was a tackling machine last year for the Trojans, leading the way with 99 tackles. Hill is outstanding against the run, stepping up and tackling just about anyone that comes even close to him. One of the underrated parts of Hill’s game is his ability to get after the quarterback and apply some pressure whenever needed.
De’Jour Donaldson - ATH - Madison Heights Lamphere
Donaldson can and likely will do just about anything for the Rams this season. He’ll lineup at running back or wide receiver on offense and can play any position in the secondary defensively. If he’s put in the right spots at the right times, Dondalson should have a huge season in 2011.
Danny Larkins - WR/DB - Madison Heights Madison
When he gets the ball, Larkins is as dangerous as anyone, showing off his speed and athleticism. Defensively, Larkins gives opposing quarterback’s headaches regularly because of his ability to shut down a teams top receiver almost on any occasion.
Nathan Drews - QB - Rochester Hills Lutheran Northwest
As a sophomore, Drews threw for over 1,600 yards and 13 touchdowns and for the most part was very accurate in doing so. Drews should be even better this season with two of his top receivers in junior Joshua Morrison and senior Collin Sheehan returning. With the weapons around him, Drews could be one of the county’s top signal callers for the next two seasons.
Shane Mahaffy - QB - Ortonville Brandon
As a sophomore in 2009, Mahaffy threw for almost 1,300 yards. As a junior last season, the Brandon quarterback threw for 1,900 yards and 17 touchdowns. This season, Mahaffy could have an even bigger season with some help from the players around him. The senior has been deadly accurate at times and can make some of the big throws that most high school quarterbacks struggle with.
Justin Mezsets - OL - Ortonville Brandon
If you’re looking for the ideal size of a college offensive lineman, look no further than Mezsets. The senior lineman is a road grader, providing Brandon with protection in the passing game, but opens up huge holes for the running backs on a regular basis. The Brandon run game will likely follow Mezsets regularly throughout the season.
John Hill - RB - Birmingham Detroit Country Day
Hill is a barn burner, putting up ridiculous times in the 40 yard dash, but that shouldn’t surprise anybody this season, after his first place finish in the 100 meter dash in the Division 2 track state championship. Hill will be dangerous running the ball as well as catching the ball, proving to be a home run threat any time he catches the ball.
Bill Schoenle - LB - Milford
Schoenle, is a big time hitter in the middle of the Mavericks defense and could have received more recognition if he had stayed healthy for a full season. Schoenle will be a big piece of the puzzle for the Milford defense, but he could see some time offensively, depending on how the Milford coaching staff plan to use him.
Zach Masserant - LB/RB/K - Novi
Masserant can do it all, he’s a sure tackler defensively, and a hard nosed running back offensively. Don’t forget that Masserant can also be a pretty reliable kicker as well for the Wildcats. Simply put, Masserant will have a lot to do with Novi’s success this season, he can make the big tackle and he can get the tough yards. What more can you ask from a player?
