2024 Arendell Parrott Academy Football Preview

Team name:

Arendell Parrott Academy

Coach name:

Matt Beaman

Key Returners:

Jaylen Solomon (Sr) Running back- Very very good. Complete running back with strength, agility, and breakaway speed. Solomon is a fierce competitor and a seasoned veteran. BIG PLAY CAPABILITIES!
Cade Mixon (Sr) Linebacker- One of the best pound for pound defenders in the area. Tough as nails, a pure menace to quarterbacks in-between the whistle, and a pure leader.
Ben Barrett (Jr) Wide Receiver- Sneaky athlete. This is my dark-horse breakout player. Barrett is a great combination of speed, athleticism, and strength. Solomon and Coach Beaman play calling will suck in the secondary all night and watch out for Ben Barrett to be In the end zone a lot this year.

Offensive Sheme:

Multiple offensive 

Defensive Sheme:

3-4, Man defense 

2023-24 record: 

5-5

The Story:

Hard work always pays off. I absolutely love the way this program is run; the kids are set up for success but are also challenged with highly competitive games. The coaching staff is great from top to bottom. Two big names stand out and will continue to shine every game this season: Jaylen Solomon and Cade Mixon. These two senior leaders are the heart and soul of this team—great leaders and great athletes.

Fullback Luke Stocks will have big opportunities to spell Solomon this season. Wide receiver Ben Barrett has plenty of chances to shine on the outside. Expect to see this team run the ball very effectively behind their strong offensive line, with wicked counters and play-action plays to keep defenses on their toes.

The defense is a solid group, led by pack leader Mixon. Keep an eye on Chris Stimson, who will be suiting up at quarterback for APA. So far, Stimson has shown the ability to be both efficient and agile, particularly in getting outside on the run game.
