Game Preview and Prospects The D Zone will be seeing at Hudsonville and Saline (Story)

The 2021 football season is slated to kickoff on August 26th at noon and the action will not stop until Saturday evening. Most of the top 25 teams face tough competition this week and some winning streaks may be snapped early this season.

Below are the prospects we're aware of entering the game. We look forward to discovering more talent.

Saline:

2022 QB/WR Larry Robinson (Army commit) will be the most dangerous player on the field at all times for Saline this year. The QB has been a starter since he was a sophomore and with his speed and athleticism is a big play waiting to happen.

2024 QB CJ Carr will be one of the top QB prospects in the country by the time he is a senior and will have his chances to shine this year after making his first career late in the playoffs last year. The nephew of former Wolverines head coach Lloyd Carr is 6'3 185 and holds 9 Division 1 offers.

2022 OG Giuseppe Gottfried is the interior lineman with a strong motor and will be someone Saline relies on heavily to lean on in key moments. The 6'3 285 lineman flipped his commitment to Navy from Air Force this past week.

2022 TE/DE Gavin Mesman is an intriguing and little known player at this time, but the 6'5 210 2-way player will have plenty of opportunity to grab attention this year. Mesman should be the go-to target in key and short yardage situations.

2022 RB/Slot Josh Rush returns after a strong junior season and expect the speedster to grab attention this year.

2022 WR/RB/R Caden Winston at 5'9 160 is a quick, speedy, and elusive playmaker.

2022 CB/S Max Koehn will be one of the Hornets top DB's this year and has shown be an asset in the secondary.

2022 OC Garrett Beazley is a 6'3 260 OL who is coming off a good junior year and will be able to show college coaches his skill set and consistently working in front of two different QB's at times this year.

2024 TE Dylan Mesman opened eyes already as he holds an Eastern Michigan offer. The 6'5 205 lbs TE will have a chance to make an impact and we'll see how he looks, lined out wide we're sure in different packages.

Hudsonville

2022 WR Dylan Ham is one of the best slot receivers across the state that we saw in 2020. The explosive player will have plenty of chances to draw more interest this season.

2022 MLB Matt Hoekstra will the Eagles tempo setter at 5'11 205 lbs. Hoekstra is coming off a big junior season.

2022 K Emanuel Dieppa is a strong-legged kicker who will be a key piece and especially with some new starters on the offense, he'll have a more important role when his number is called.
