Best August Performers in the 7A and 8A Classes

<p>The final batch of players to look at from the previous month comes from the 7A and 8A classes. These are the largest schools in the state by student size and therefore have the largest talent pools. The previous article was on the 5A and 6A classes and you can read it <a href="https://prepsoccer.com/2026/09/best-august-performers-in-the-5a-and-6a-classes/" data-type="link" data-id="https://prepsoccer.com/2026/09/best-august-performers-in-the-5a-and-6a-classes/">here</a>.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">7A</h2>    <p class="text-gray-700">Keinner is easily one of the most naturally talented wingers in the entire state. The left footed player loves to take his markers out to dance whenever he's under pressure. He turns them in and out with his incredible flair and dribbling. His ability to get through players is spectacular to watch. He stops and starts dribbles to control the ball exactly how he pleases. As a winger, he likes to cut in on his right and either play a wonderful ball into the box or take an equally wonderful shot. Though he's the current assist leader for the class, his goal catalogue is top class. Centrally, he cuts through defenses as if they were butter. He drives the ball towards them just to leave them behind. If he's too far from the final third to reasonably drive the ball forward, he'll pick out a superb pass.</p>     <p class="text-gray-700">Josue is a dynamic striker who loves to wreak havoc in and around the box. Off the ball, his movements are great. He knows where to position himself to receive the ball so he can get a shot off. This can be either by seperating himself from markers when the ball is played in from out wide, or making runs in behind. His ball control inside the box gives him a huge advantage over the defenders and goalkeeper. It gives him time to position himself and finish chances without buckling to the pressure of the situation.</p>    <h2 class="wp-block-heading">8A</h2>   <p>.</p>    <p class="text-gray-700">Zach is a forward who can play either as a striker or as a right winger inside the half spaces. His ability to be direct even under immense pressure allows his team to get plenty of chances per match. Though he can be flairful, he's most effective when he drives the ball straight through on goal. His finishing inside the box is fantastic. If he's the one who brought the ball into the box, he'll finish the chance with fantastic composure. This composure isn't lost when he has to be an opportunist too. When the ball is played to him inside the box, he won't hesitate to pounce on it.</p>     <p class="text-gray-700">Tyler is an immensely talented attacking midfielder who can also play in attack. His most effective and scintillating soccer comes when he plays in midifield though. His quick feet and agility make him a nightmare to defend. This also allows him to open up spaces from where he generates lots of danger. Though he plays far from the box, he still creates chances for his teammates and himself. The passes he plays in behind the defense are fantastic, generating chances from difficult positions. His long shots are unbelievable. Combining both his quick reactions and fantastic ballstrking technique, his shots are practically unsavable when they go on target.</p>
