2015 Mass Prep Stars & 1st String Performance Massachusetts Pre-Season Football Super Team - Defense

Saturday, September 12th, 2015

Blake Gallagher '17 - St. Sebastian's

Welcome to Our Third Annual Mass Prep Stars and First String Performance Collaborative 2015 Pre-Season Super Team.

Mass Prep Stars and First String Performance joined together again this year to evaluate, analyze and predict some of the top Massachusetts players at each Offensive, Defensive and Specialist positions. Our expanded pre-season team highlights some of the top players at each position in Massachusetts football.

After our look at the 2015 Offensive and Specialist Pre-Season team earlier in the week, we conclude the week with our 2015 Pre-Season Defensive Squad.

It was certainly a difficulty process to narrow down the expanded list this season, as there were many deserving candidates. This season we named a starting first-team and instead of having, second and third teams, we listed the individual players at their nominated positions in alphabetical order after our First-teamers, who are highlighted in BOLD.

Our returning 2014 End-of-Season Super Team members have stars after their names. We have also recognized multiple season nominees from our 2014 Pre-Season Super Team in parentheses after their names.

The loaded linebacker and defensive back positions lead our 37-man 2015 Pre-Season Defensive unit that includes MIAA, Massachusetts private schools, and Mass. residents playing in New England schools.

You can expect our continuied weeekly coverage of the top local gridiron stars, as we do player analysis, video highlights, photo galleries, updated rankings and feature columns.

Next week we will have our newest annual feature that looks at early-season “Under the Radar and Breakout Performers”.  We will also be taking a look at the Massachusetts Prep-School scene and the top talent coming out of the NEPSAC ranks.

Mass Prep Stars will also be providing a 2015 Start-of-Season update to our 2016 Football player rankings, as well as introducing a Class of 2017 Football Player Pre-ranking next week.

Stay tuned as we look to provide you with some of the top coverage of Massachusetts student athletes all year. If you wish to nominate athletes for lists and ranking consideration, as well as live athlete coverage, please email [email protected]
