Incoming senior Caden Delattre isn’t a large target by any means, but he has the height to get over a defender to make the catch. His ability to find the open spot on the field or make the low catch combined with his good concentration earned him a spot on the PFN Coaches Select All-State team.
He also has a great teacher, his dad and head coach, Homer Delattre. “Caden has proven himself to be on of the top athletes in the area in multiple sports. We are looking for him to having an even better senior season year as well growing a leader off the field”.
