who are the influential players involved in North Canton Hoover football? 
 
If Zac Braucher performs anywhere, then be sure that he will perform it excellently. Braucher is a third team All-Ohio wide receiver who had 57 receptions for 808 yards and 7 TD’s last year; he was also Viking’s leading interceptor, with 4 at corner. This year he might be spending a lot of time at quarterback, a position were he grew up and had to fill in occasionally last year when three-year starter Carson Dyrlund went down. . . . Cole Rembielak filled the starting middle linebacker position for the team last year, and he was quite impressive. He was ranked first for the Viking’s tackles with 107 as well as first hits with 73 and tackles for loss with 13. He also set himself as one of the leading punters in the region the fetching an average of 39. 8 yards a boot. . . . Bryce Roach and Drew Ziarko are two strong Senior DEs, who provide Hoover with two big players on the field, specifically, off the edge. That gives the pair 22 TFLs and 14 sacks between them and it seems that the Broncos have not really looked at the overall value of that position on the team. . . . They are step-friends, do to the fact that Drew has a little brother named Jack Ziarko. A 6-3, 280-pound junior, Jack Ziarko begun his second year as Hoover ‘s left starting tackle and has MAC schools reconsidering making offers. . . . Junior Jack Andes is another small, fast player who will provide Hoover a home run threat at the receiver and the returner position just like Mason Ashby for the previous three years before graduation. Andes also will factor in at cornerback. 
 
What’s the latest news to know concerning Hoover from North Canton football in 2024? 
 
Graduation of Dyrlund will mean that Braucher or junior John Collins will be playing the position of a quarterback for the Vikingers. Those who are not beefy will be at wide receiver instead. As for Xavier until this past year head coach Brian Baum has been willing to use both at QB. ”They are still battling, but I hope to see both of them play this season,” Baum said. ”Yeah It’s great to have two guys who are varsity ready. ” . . Hoover could use such a player interior on both fronts, Senior Malcolm Dudley is a 6-1, 326-pound lineman. . . . Junior Carter Lukens is another lock to start as a linebacker next to Rembielak and junior Chase Lukens. He also vies for carries on offense together with AJ Dolph and Christian Friel in his team’s senior class as well as Drake Cooper, a member of the junior class. Said Baum, “I really like our running back situation. ” This is Dolph, an endowed athlete who has seen his sophomore and junior season cut short by injuries. . . . Burwell, a long time assistant for the Hoover squad, is moving back up to the varsity level as the Vikings’ defensive coordinator. 
 
North Canton Hoover football’s outlook 
 
The Vikings are well-stocked at positions in the skill players. Among the returnees in this position is senior Barker, who played corner back, and recently participated in Division I state championship in the long jump a couple of months ago. Barker also could be a deep-ball threat at receiver as Hoover tries to determine how exactly it’s going to utilize its plethora of talent. ‘There are going to be guys that are back-ups that would be starters in other years,’ Baum said. . . . Hoover has to replace all its defensive line and will have two starters on the offense line are new; Jack Ziarko, a center, and Sam Gorman, a right guard, and Matt Brown. Baum feels like the vikings have the players to be more multiple this season and run the power offense. It is not enjoyable trying to run the (I-formation) and getting pushed back one yard behind the line every time they snap the ball, Baum said. On face, tight end Henry Gaskell and H-backs TJ Walker and Brant Daugherty help in that regard, quarterback said but added: “But when we can line up and go nose to nose with people with a tight end and a fullback, that’s fun football, We think we might be able to do that little bit this year,” . . . Baum has been at Hoover for a full decade; furthermore, he has taken the program forward tracing the trend of consistency which was seen with the previous head coaches the Don Hertler Jr , Ed Glass, and Don Hertler Sr. “The culture was here,” Baum said. “You’re just trying to keep it going and make your mark I’ve enjoyed it. ” alluding to his twenty year long career in the fashion business.
