Big Tyler Thorpe is the big engine that drives the University Christian Middle School offensive line at Center and defensive line at Nose Tackle. The talented 8th grader is a multi-sport athlete, excelling in Football and Baseball. On the diamond, Thorpe plays first base. The signature position for a slugger. His raw power as a hitter has translated on the football field as a bulldozing blocker on the offensive line. With long arms and a strong base, Thorpe gets extension while blocking and can control offensive linemen while playing on the defensive line with bull rushes.
He is projected to be a 4-star linemen, with the ability to play both sides of the ball based on his height, weight, and exceptional athleticism for his size. And will be a prime time player in high school football in the coming years and for years to come.
