I’ve often been asked how do you know a high school athlete is a major DI player. My answer has never changed:
“Watch them play”Power conference recruits stand out. PSU commit Joey Schlaffer did again tonight.

Update (9:50 a.m.)-
**Three-star QB commit Jaxon Smolik and Dowling Catholic took care of business with a 34-0 win over City High.
Half: Dowling 21, City High 0.
All Maroons over here. City has moved the ball some, but Dowling’s defense has been stingy.
Jaxon Smolik hit Beau Gamble on this 29-yard TD pass before half. Beautiful throw, hit Gamble in stride. #iahsfb pic.twitter.com/YLSbSDQYwX

**Four-star wide receiver commit Carmelo Taylor and Patrick Henry (Virginia) got a 31-7 win over William Fleming.
We won an away game 31-7 against our city rilvary. I was tripled and doubled teamed all evening, but we had other weapons in the arsenal, that unloaded. Good game fellas, it's back to the black board. #WeAre #PennState #ElectricFunk #Explosive #Dynamic #HellCatMelo #GrandinBoys pic.twitter.com/mlzs81ZtbL
