UPDATED: 8/20/20

Colleges across the nation continue to take notice of the prep talent in Arizona each season. More than 350 players from the Class of 2020 have signed with schools to advance their football careers, and receive an education.

Of course, everything in sports has been ground to a halt due to the worldwide coronavirus pandemic. Recruiting is not immune to that. The NCAA has extended its dead period for in-person recruiting through at least September 30. Schools are not permitted to host any official or unofficial on-campus visits during that time. Coaches are allowed to contact prospective student-athletes through phone calls, text messages, and in writing (but not in person). That is currently in effect for every sport in Division I and Division II.

An NAIA offer from Trinity International went out last Friday to Joel Diaz. The 6-1, 180-pound safety from Arizona College Prep has started for three years on varsity for the Knights. Diaz piled up 92 tackles and also picked off three passes as ACP finished 8-3 and made the 3A playoffs for the first time. A dual-sport athlete (track), he carries a 4.8 GPA. The coronavirus put a kink in his summer college camp plans, but Diaz now has 16 offers. On July 31, the NAIA postponed its football championships to the spring semester. Schools can choose whether to compete in the fall or winter. A check of the schedule for Trinity International currently shows all of its games as being "Postponed". The Illinois school wrapped up its 2019 season with a 1-10 record. The Trojans compete in the Mid-States Football Association and had just six senior players a year ago.

Also gaining an offer from TIU was Heriberto Barnett. The 5-6, 165-pound cornerback, alson known as "Junior", goes nonstop on the field for Nogales. He made 45 tackles and picked off two passes last season. In the classroom, Barnett has a 3.5 GPA and wants to study Business Management after high school.

Heidelberg University, a private school in Northern Ohio, extended offers to a pair of players in the past few days. James Mcelhenny and Connor DePrez received them from the Student Princes. Mcelhenny is a 6-3, 190-pound quarterback at Tolleson. He threw six touchdown passes for the Wolverines last season and rushed for three more. Mcelhenny's longest run was a 35-yarder in a win over Copper Canyon. DePrez is a 6-4, 250-pound offensive guard at Hamilton. He helped the Huskies average 38.8 points per game and make the Open Division semifinals. DePrez made the Sports360AZ All-Academic team with his 3.53 unweighted GPA. Heidelberg is a member of the Ohio Athletic Conference (Div. III), which had its football season postponed. The good news is the league has announced preliminary schedules for the spring. The 10-team league will split into two divisions with the Student Princes in the West. Heidelberg will play each of the four teams in its division on Friday nights from March 19 to April 9. A fifth game will be played against the school in the same finishing position in the other division on April 16. Heidelberg drew the bye for March 12 and will begin its spring season at home in Hoernemann Stadium on March 19 against Capital University (Ohio). Heidelberg finished at 6-4 last year.

Last Sunday, Elijah Sobas, a teammate of DePrez at Hamilton, obtained an offer from Heidelberg. Sobas is a 6-1, 225-pound linebacker for the Huskies. Much of his highlights come from JV, but he did have six tackles in a varsity win over Dobson last September. Sobas is getting ready for the season by lifting large amounts of weight. He recently squatted 405 pounds for three reps. In addition to football, Sobas is a wrestler (two-time state placer) and carries a 4.2 GPA.

Heidelberg kept it going throughout the week as Rocco Bruney collected his first offer from the Student Princes on Thursday. The 6-foot, 190-pound quarterback at Glendale is a true dual-threat. Throwing the ball? He did that with 2,355 yards (with a 65% completion rate) and 20 touchdowns. Running the ball? On a team with a 1,400-yard rusher (Kevin Daniels), Bruney also broke 1,000 yards (1,135) and had 14 TDs. In the classroom, he was a First Team selection by Sports360AZ for its All-Academic Team with a 4.0 GPA.

The top 11 tacklers for Salpointe last season were all seniors. That means there's a lot of juniors from last year's Lancers team that will be asked to step in and fill those roles. One is defensive end, Brees McCraren, who collected an offer from Millikin last Friday. The 6-2, 260-pound defensive tackle had sacks in games against Tucson and Vista Grande last year. McCraren now has eight college offers and his long-range plans are to study to become a physical therapist. Millikin's football players will not report to campus in Decatur, Ill. early for the start of practice this fall. It's league, the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (Div. III), suspended all fall sports competition. They will explore CCIW rescheduling football in the spring. Last year, the Big Blue finished 5-5.

Also picking an offer up from Millikin this week was Mason Phillips. The 6-2, 215-pound center at Casteel helped the Colts average 39 points and 437 yards per game. CHS went 9-4 last year and made the 5A semifinals. This fall, the Colts move up (again) and join the ranks of the 6A Conference. Phillips is relentless on the field and also shows plenty of drive off of it (3.8 GPA). For his college studies, he's interested in Business or Finance.

With head coach Eric Lauer returning to the school he enjoyed success at, Mountain Pointe is looking for a turnaround season. Jason Ramirez-Corpuz comes up from the JV ranks and is looking to be a ball hawk and a tackle king for the Pride. He earned an offer from a CCIW school last Saturday with one from Carthage College. Ramirez-Corpuz plays in the secondary as a safety and now holds seven offers. Carthage, located in Kenosha, Wisconsin, was 4-6 last year. The Red Men bring a lot of its roster back from 2019.

Last year, the Chandler offense averaged 50 points and 475 yards per game during a 13-0 perfect season. Returning on the offensive line is Mason Winkelmann, who got an offer from Lake Forest last Sunday. Winkelmann (5-10, 250) played center and guard for the Wolves. He makes up for the size with technique and athleticism. Winkelmann also gets good grades as shown by his 3.8 GPA. In late July, it was announced that the education at Lake Forest College will be done remotely for the entire fall semester. This news was released shortly after the Midwest Conference (Div. III) suspended competition for the rest of the calendar year. Football meetings and practices are not permitted for the Foresters through December. A decision on a spring season will likely be made well into the fall semester. LFC finished 7-3 in 2019.

Later in the week, Lake Forest extended offers to Phillips, Mikey Ortiz and Caden Calloway. Ortiz is a 5-9, 170-pound safety at Desert Edge. Ortiz had 41 tackles and intercepted four passes for the Scorpions. Three of those came during the playoff run for DEHS, which ended in the 4A state title game. Calloway is a 5-9, 170-pound running back at Campo Verde. He rushed for 1,739 yards and 22 touchdowns before suffering an injury in the Coyotes' 5A semifinal playoff victory over Notre Dame. Calloway was a workhorse back for CVHS and had more than 25 carries in five of the team's games (and the Coyotes were 5-0 when he eclipsed that mark).

For the second week in a row, Tyson Tapley appears on here as the Desert Mountain receiver pocketed an offer from Loras College. The 6-1, 175-pound wide receiver showed a flash of future success in a win over North Canyon last October (4 catches, 78 yards). Tapley was limited last season as he had to sit the first five games after transferring from Brophy. Loras, located in Iowa, is a member of the American Rivers Conference (Div. III). Earlier this month, it was announced that football will be postponed to the spring season. The Duhawks wrapped up last year with a 5-5 record. It was the school's best mark since 2010.

Concordia College in Minnesota made offers to two more players on Monday. Dax Heggie and Jayden Ahboah reaped them from the Cobberrs. This is the first offer for Heggie, a 6-2, 215-pound linebacker who recently transferred from ALA-Queen Creek to Casteel. He had 39 tackles and five sacks for the Patriots, which captured the 3A state title last year. Ahboah is a 6-5, 295-pound offensive guard at Desert Edge. One of his most recent workouts was last Saturday with Austin Kartchner, an assistant offensive line coach at Coffeyville CC in Kansas. Concordia's conference, the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, announced last month that football will be postponed to the spring. The league is working to develop a spring schedule. Training and practice will be permitted in accordance with Division III rules and NCAA health directives. The Cobbers finished the year with a 5-3 record in the MIAC and 5-5 overall. Concordia has won at least five conference games in seven of the past eight years.

Taking a look at special teams, Basha kicker Derek Bass secured an offer from Southwestern University in Central Texas, just north of Austin. Bass is rated a 4.5 star prospect (out of 6) by Chris Sailer Kicking. Last month in the Rising Seniors Camp, he tied for second in field goal charting after hitting seven of eight kicks. Bass has a strong leg with a range all the way up to 55 yards. Southwestern is a member of the American Southwest Conference (Div. III), which has made its plans for a spring season. The league will have a two-division model with five teams in each group. The Pirates will start out at home against East Texas Baptist on Feb. 6. Their four games will take place in the month of February on Saturdays (SU's bye is March 6). On March 13, a single-game "playoff" will occur with each team facing the corresponding place in the other division. No decision has been made on non-conference contests, but playing any more than five total games would cause student-athletes to lose a year of eligibility. A decision will be made on a school-by-school basis to determine if it wants to retain eligibility or play additional games.

Whittier College, located in Los Angeles County, extended offers to a pair of defensive players on Monday. CJ Flores and Ben Strawn seized them from the Poets. Flores is a 5-11, 185-pound safety at Cienega. He had 42 tackles for the Bobcats, who went 8-0 against Southern Arizona opponents last season. Flores is a 4.0 student, and he added an offer from Trinity International on Tuesday. Strawn is a 6-4, 235-pound defensive end at Northwest Christian. The offer from Whittier is his first. Strawn had 49 tackles and led the Crusaders with 8.5 sacks. In addition to football, he has played volleyball for NCS in each of the past three springs. Whittier belongs to the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (Div. III), which canceled its football season for the fall semester. The league is looking into possibly playing in the spring semester. Last year, Whittier ended with a five-game losing streak to finish at 3-7.

Year in and year out, Centennial normally has one of the state's top defenses. Manning the secondary this year will be DJ Williams at one of the corner positions. He acquired his third Big Sky Conference offer from Montana State on Tuesday. The 6-1, 180-pound player is a three-sport athlete with the Coyotes. Williams saw limited action as a junior, but had an interception in a September win over Millennium. Earlier this month, the Big Sky Conference announced plans to postpone the football season to the spring of 2021. Last season was a big one for Montana State. The Bobcats had their best year in decades, going 11-4 and reaching the FCS semifinals.

Williams picked up a new teammate this season as Marzion Cosby has transferred from St. Louis to Centennial. The 5-11, 180-pound wide receiver received an offer from Northern Arizona on Tuesday. Cosby, who can also play defensive back, has offers from five FCS schools. His game is a combination of quickness and closing speed. Cosby could combine with Williams either at wide receiver or in the secondary. Northern Arizona (4-8 last season) had two special teams players selected on Phil Steele's Preseason All-Big Sky First Team, and both are from the state. Kicker Luis Aguilar (Nogales) set the school's record for kicking points in a season last year with 118. Punter DJ Arnson (Basha) dropped 19 of his 57 punts inside the 20-yard line.

In addition to Cosby, NAU offered another athlete new to the state. Dorian Singer got an offer from the Lumberjacks on Thursday. The 6-1, 175-pound wide reciever and safety transferred to Pinnacle from Minnesota. Singer has good speed and also owns a Power Five offer from Iowa State. He's a multi-sport athlete that also plays basketball. In his tweet from last month, Singer said he is transferring to Arizona to "showcase his talent at a higher level". The state of Minnesota has postponed its high school football season to the spring.

Pinnacle center Jake LeBlanc earned an offer from Minnesota Morris on Thursday. LeBlanc (6-0, 275) was part of an O-Line that helped the Pioneers pave their way to 40.6 points and 409 yards per game on their way to an Open playoff berth. LeBlanc carries a 3.6 GPA and trains at TBA with many other top linemen in the state. Minnesota Morris is a part of the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference (Div. III), which has postponed its football competitions for the fall. UMN Morris hopes to compete during the spring semester. The Cougars finished 2019 with a 20-0 fourth-quarter rally against Greenville (Ill.). However, a failed two-point conversion left Minnesota Morris short in a 34-33 contest to finish at 1-9.

Verrado returns 1,400-yard rusher Logan Gingg this season. The 5-10, 195-pound back gained an offer on Wednesday from the University of San Diego. For the second year in a row, Gingg averaged more than six yards per carry. He also found the end zone in each of the Vipers' last six games last season and scored 21 touchdowns. An excellent student, Gingg also totes a 4.0 GPA. San Diego is in the Pioneer Football League (FCS), which like the Big Sky, will not be playing a fall football season. The Toreros have won the PFL title in each of the last six years and finished 9-3 in 2019.

Here's the rest of the offers from the past week:

Pinnacle kicker Max Miller received his first offers from Lake Forest and Puget Sound (Wash.).
Chandler offensive tackle Ali'i Kai Ormita received an offer from Concordia College (Minn.).
Desert Ridge cornerback Gabe Tulo received his first offer from Hamline (Minn.).
Chaparral offensive tackle Mason Osborn received an offer from Montana Tech.

This list shows four-year college offers received by seniors throughout the state. It's not limited to just 6A and 5A. It will be constantly updated as we approach the Early Signing Period from December 16-18. Those are the first days that high school seniors can sign a letter of intent to agree to attend an institution.

Verbal commitments are shown in bold.

Everything about his new college home in 2021 seems to fit well for James Jaquint. From the education itself to a successful football program with coaches that are welcoming to the team's defense matching his style of play.

The 6-2, 205-pound safety at Notre Dame Prep announced his commitment to the University of San Diego on Thursday. He's a serious student with a 3.63 GPA and looks forward to the entire experience.

"The quality of education that USD provides is excellent," Jaquint said in a text message. "It also doesn't hurt that they consistently win their conference and are located in San Diego. Also Coach (Ray) Clark and Coach (Steve) Oliver were consistently communicating with me and made me feel more than comfortable."

Clark is the nickelbacks coach at USD and Oliver, who played at Hamilton in his high school days, is the tight ends coach. Jaquint is a two-year starter at NDP and had 66 tackles and a pair of interceptions as the Saints went 11-2 and reached the 5A semifinals.

Jaquint is the second Notre Dame senior to commit to a college this month joining JD Roberts (New Mexico).

He selected USD over another Pioneer Football League offer from Valparaiso. The Toreros offered Jaquint in late June.

San Diego is the third-winningest FCS program over the past decade. The Toreros have the nation's longest active winning streak in conference games (37) and have made the playoffs in four straight years. Extending that is going to have to wait because last Friday, the PFL announced the league's schools will not conduct competition this fall. The nine schools in the conference are spread out over eight different states from San Diego to New York to Florida. If there is a favorable change in the environment, the Toreros will explore competing in football in the spring semester. Last year, USD finished 9-3.

Last February, the University of Mary sacked, looted, and pillaged the state of Arizona with 10 commitments. For the Class of '21, the Marauders are showing they're coming back for more.

On Thursday, Valley Christian quarterback Jadon Hanzal decided to be the first from this class to commit to the Division II school in Bismarck, North Dakota. With a 3.91 GPA, the academics come first.

"For me a big part of it was my major, which is Engineering, and after my visit a month ago, I had a call and follow-up with their head professor," Hanzal said in a text message. "Knowing they have the academic part of it was huge."

Sharing the snaps at quarterback with a senior, Hanzal threw for 1,073 yards and nine touchdown last season. The Trojans went 8-3 and returned to the 3A playoffs.

Hanzal has some family that lives just 20 minutes away, so while he'll be relocating to North Dakota, he'll still feel relatively close to home..

Mary was the first school to give the 6-foot, 165-pound signal caller the opportunity to play football in college. The attention the staff showed made an impact.

"It was the interest they showed in me," Hanzal said. "I knew they wanted me to go there and I was welcome. I'm happy to be a Marauder!"

Mary is one of 16 schools in the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference that saw its fall sports season canceled on Thursday. The decision allows for athletes to opt out of the fall workout phase and retain their scholarships. A season of eligibility will not be used up. The Marauders finished 2-9 last season.
