In a game that featured two of the top ranked teams in the state of Georgia in

Class 6A, there was plenty of talent on the field. But despite several future

FBS players, including three-star tight end Sam Letton and 2019 star

Dominick Blaylock, Walton couldn't keep pace with Roswell, losing

48-14. The Roswell defense lived up to it's billing as the state's best, with

Rivals250 linebacker and Clemson commit Tre Lamar, 2017

Rivals100 defensive back LeAnthony Williams and 2017 Alabama

commit Xavier McKinney leading the way for the Hornets.

After struggling with injuries during the offseason, Tre Lamar slipped

out of the Rivals100 and currently sits at No. 109 overall. Fully healthy and

playing a lighter weight than he did at offseason camps during the summer, Lamar

was very impressive while flying all over the field to make plays. Not only was

he great at stuffing the run, but he had a quarterback sack and several hurries

and also made plays on the perimeter while defending the screen game. Lamar

remains committed to the Clemson, but Auburn hasn't given up him, and it's easy

to see why both programs want him as the future heart of their defense.

After playing well as a sophomore and having an excellent offseason, Xavier McKinney was ranked by Rivals as a 5.7 three-star prior to receiving his

first offer. Just a few short months later McKinney is having a terrific junior

year, has committed to Alabama, and looks like he might be in line for another

move up the rankings. McKinney made several plays from his safety position,

including a late interception in the red zone that helped his team ice the game

away. McKinney is committed to Alabama, but said he will take a visit to Clemson

before the fall is over.

LeAnthony Williams has already reached the point in his high school career where

the ball doesn't even come his way anymore. Williams locked down one side of the

field all night, and recorded a pass deflection on one of the few balls that

came into his vicinity. According to Williams, Florida State has made a

major move in his recruitment, and he plans on visiting the Seminoles soon. Also

in the mix are Tennessee and Georgia.

 

Roswell's team is loaded with talent and players with scholarship offers, but

there appears to be at least a couple of players that haven't hit the recruiting

scene yet. Junior wide receiver Jayden Comma has great size at 6-foot-3

and 200 pounds and made several plays, including high-pointing a ball and

hauling it in and then breaking tackles for a long touchdown. His teammate and

Roswell's left tackle Jordan Tucker is another physically impressive

prospect and is listed at 6-foot-6 and 325 pounds. He plays left tackle for

Roswell and it should only be a matter of time before major offers start rolling

in for Tucker.

Blaylock,

who already boasts offers from Georgia, South Carolina and a

few other programs, had a tough night while being blanketed by Williams for most

of the night. With the success he's already had on the season and his impressive

offer sheet, it's easy to forget that Blaylock is just a freshman who is only

five games into his high school career. Blaylock is becoming a star, but like

anyone else there's going to  be a few bumps along the way.

Roswell

junior running back Sheldon Evans has an early offer from Georgia Southern and

it shouldn't be long before more schools join his list. The 5-foot-11, 205-pound

Evans ran all over the Walton defense, and also made several plays as a wide

receiver out of the backfield. Evans could be an ideal fit in a pro-style

offense and expect schools from around the country to come calling soon.
