Karl was also part of the Great Falls Super State team this past year as an ATH. Probably worth noting.

you could add a link to the Hudl highlights under each player, just a thought

Done and done.

With the number of commits we're getting already maybe a mod should sticky this.

Good Thread! I like it a lot...

[TomCat88]

Two Tuckers in one class. Are they related?
Sessions sounds like a K-Tel record. Opland is like O.P. "Ocean Pacific" Land. Very 70s. Gotta like that!
Then there's DM and DM (Darius Mosley and Derek Marks).

Raise your hand if you remember K-Tel and OP.

Raising hand. Owned quite a few OP shirts and K-Tel LPs back in the day.

Just updated Opland's profile with his impressive sophomore season data.

Thanks Mods!

I gotta add that I'm very impressed with Opland. You have to wonder what his times would be if he dropped 25 pounds. I believe his 4.7 40 is electronic.

[Bemiller49]

That 40 time was taken at the Oregon University Football Camp. He would be hard pressed to lose 25lbs, he is about 5% body fat as it is.

The more I hear and read about Opland the more I think he might be the best athlete in the state. To run the 100, 200 and 400 so well in the same meet at his size is spectacular. Then to high jump among the best is just icing. I'm trying to think of a player with a similar record. I'm think he averaged double figures and rebounded well in basketball.

He also had a couple crazy put back dunks this year as well.

He's gonna be fun to follow this year.

Jed Nagler from Whitefish is also an athletic freak, especially for his size. Plays WR/DE for Whitefish at 6'3", 210 lbs. For State A, he took first in the 100 (11.15), 1st in high jump (6-5), and 3rd in the 200. However, Sean is right there with Nagler. I'm most impressed with Sean's 400 time of 49.46. That is an endurance/power race so kudos to him on that. I would say they are definitely the top 2 athletes in the state unless someone can prove me wrong.

Nagler is a freak athlete for sure. Any news on where he is leaning?

No clue. Bobcat and Griz coaches follow him on twitter but he doesn't follow any back. He has been silent on the social media front much like Jesse Sims last year. If he has a big senior season, the Cats and Griz will probably have to start fighting FBS schools for him.

Adam Corderio, His junior year(98) he won state 100, 200, 4x100 relay, shotput, and discus. He beat Arie Grey that year in state B championships. (@6-1" 225lbs).
