He pretty much runs our defense and gets everybody in the right spots. He’s a tackling machine, last year and this year, too. MaxPreps said he was the sixth-leading tackler in the state last year.
Chambers also gets some snaps at receiver and some in the backfield in the Senators’ heavy package and he occasionally returns kicks. “Sometimes, you are just trying to get your playmaker the ball,” the coach said.Watson praised senior quarterback Josh Ward for his leadership on the team.

Watson also singled out Jayden Lamar, a 6-0, 150-pound senior center. “He’s one of our big leaders, on and off the field. He’s one that the guys look up to. He’s like the ‘alpha’ of the team.” Jets quarterback Ty Marsh has passed for more than 1,000 yards with 10 touchdowns and 6 interceptions. Cam Berry leads a balanced run game with more than 300 yards and DJ Williams has more than 200. Ty Doughty has 30 catches for 480 yards and 4 touchdowns.
