Heading out to the East Valley this week to see a pair of talented young QBs as Perry plays host to Queen Creek this Friday. Both teams come in at 2-0.
Queen Creek brings Clemson commit Tait Reynolds, who I haven't seen play live yet. The Bulldogs could equal their win total from all of last year this week. A dual-threat, Reynolds is averaging 224 passing yards for QC and also running for 129 yards per game. He's surpassed the 100-yard mark in each game. QCHS had a dramatic come-from-behind victory last week against Casteel, 39-38. This week brings another chance to take out a team from the CUSD.
Perry has sophomore QB Kael Snyder, who has thrown 7 TD passes in his first 2 varsity starts. He is coming off an Honor Bowl MVP performance against Granite Hills in San Diego, where he was 22-of-33 for 250 yards and a touchdown pass in a 39-21 win. Perry also has a two-way star in Maddox Ford, who has rushed for 109 yards and has 10 tackles and an interception from his linebacker position. Ford had 11 sacks last year as a sophomore.
So who will go to 3-0? I'll be on hand in Gilbert to find out on Friday night!
