The eyes of the football world are increasingly falling on Nick Streubel.
The Coupeville High School senior-to-be has landed on the Northwest Prep Report-Rivals.com Top 100 of the Pacific NW list.
Devoted to the Class of 2014 gridiron giants, the list includes athletes from Washington, Oregon and Idaho. To make the list, you have to be considered a legitimate college football prospect who is also expected to have a huge impact next season at the high school level.
Big name schools like O’Dea, Federal Way, Jackson, Skyline, Tumwater and Bellevue all have players on the list, with Coupeville being one of the few small schools represented.
In his write-up, Dirk Knudsen, who has written extensively for OregonPreps.com and WashingtonPreps.com, gushes about Streubel, saying about The Big Hurt:
Nick Streubel is a powerful kid who has great ability. He finishes blocks with a vengeance far beyond his years. Being looked at by a number of schools and is very well coached! Keep an eye on this guy!
Not bad. Now they just need to put the E back between the P and V in Coupeville on their site and adjust Streubel’s stats. They list him at six-foot-three and 290 pounds. Last I heard he was six-four and 300.
Way to NIck !!!!
