Best O-line in the county! 🙌.
I love these guys!! Our O-Line is a group of savages!! We ask them to do a lot, and not only do they embrace the challenge. They keep our QB clean and are the main reason we have rushed for 6k in 2 seasons!! 🦅

@granitehillsfb Thank you for believing in me! And thank you @BStoneKUSI for the recognition.
Top 5 teams in the county don't normally have freshman quarterbacks. Granite Hills is the exception. @ZacharyBenitez3 played like an upperclassman on @KUSINews two weeks ago on the Saturday night special.

Thank you @TJ_Randall12 for the recognition 🙏🏽.
Gotta add @ZacharyBenitez3 to this list, too. Plus physical attributes at that age with 4,600 yards and 50 touchdowns as a passer against quality competition. Easy thrower with wrist talent - should have P4 offers.
