Had a great JR season = 14 G ... 45 rec ... 575 yds ... 10 TD's for the 5A State Champs.

3.8 GPA

Plays for my local HS or at least the district I live in. Saw him 3 times this year, had a great game on the road vs Saguaro's Traveling All Stars... 5 / 100+ & 2 TD's.

Good size, he's a legit 6-5 in cleats. A 50-50 winner, excellent at high pointing the ball and looks for those YAC's.

Horizon HS's arch-rival? Pinnacle. Home of Duce Robinson. That will be an absolute college coaches convention at Desert Ridge this fall.

This is a kid who will climb the rankings & ratings. IF ND has to have 2 TE's and Duce or Riley Williams aren't in the plan... (Duce I hear is already a no) this is a great prospect that covers the all important school / RKG boxes off the field.

Any relation to Joe Klopfenstein? He was a former NFL TE and 2nd round pick of the Rams in 2006.

Could be. Doing some research on just that I found an obit & it's possible they share a (Great) grandfather and grandmother who coincidentally met, married and lived in South Bend before moving to Colorado where Joe is from.
