When Abe Assad ties up with you, you feel the full shock of his heavy hands. As a matter of fact, that’s just how he does things. Strong throughout every move. He’s a grinder and if you’re not ready to wrestle the full six against him then it will be a straight up hammer and nail situation.
Watch Assad defeat PA hammer Carter Starocci:
#3 - Devin Winston
- 2018 Jr Fargo AA
- 2017 CD Fargo Champ
- UNC Commit
Winston is a whole lot to handle. A whole lot of arm. A whole lot of leg. He’s just a whole damn lot. He uses his length very wisely like when he chooses to go with an ankle pick that for most guys would be out of range. He’s got a pretty lax style that almost lulls you into comfort so you’ve got to be careful not to get caught sleeping.
Watch Winston show his stingy defense and dynamic offense in the Fargo quarters:
