@LukeSyvrud
2027 QB prospect showing the kind of size, poise, and production that translates to the next level. At 6’2”, carrying a strong frame, and backed by a 3.8 GPA, this is the type of young quarterback who checks every box recruiters look for. Proven winner, fundamentally clean, and developing at a pace that should put him firmly on radars. Coaches — this is a 2027 QB worth turning the tape on for.

TAPPS Division III
📊 Semifinals Preview & Prediction 📊

⭐ Semifinals Game #1
D1-1 Lubbock Christian School @LCHSEagles
D3-2 Geneva School of Boerne @GSB_AthleticsTX

🔹 Few semifinal matchups in Texas private school football carry as much history, subplots, and emotional weight as Lubbock Christian vs. Geneva. These two programs last met on the state’s biggest stage in 2019, when Geneva stunned an undefeated Lubbock Christian team to capture the TAPPS Division III state championship. Six years later, the Eagles of LC are back in the semifinals for the fifth straight season, and the road to redemption once again runs through Geneva. Despite losing their starting quarterback midseason for the second time in three years, Lubbock Christian has not blinked — averaging a staggering 468 yards and 46.9 points per game behind an offense that has only gotten more dynamic since senior QB Jace Jackson took the reins. Jackson’s versatility was on full display last week with three rushing TDs, a passing TD, and even a receiving TD, while star RB Dai Dai Atkins (1,381 yards, 17 TDs) continues his torrid postseason run. Add in WR Keaton Lee (1,301 yards, 16 TDs) @KeatonLee_10, and it’s no surprise Lubbock Christian looks like a machine built for late November football.

🔹 Geneva arrives in Abilene with momentum that rivals any team in Texas. At 10–2, the Eagles are enjoying their best season since that 2019 title run and are powered by one of the most explosive young offenses anywhere in TAPPS. Junior QB Caleb Quitadamo @CalebQuitadamo has thrown for 3,484 yards and 36 TDs, RB Shae McNew has been unstoppable with 1,176 yards on the ground, and the receiving trio of Reid Aderholt, Chase Doran, and Brady Chandler is as dangerous as any in Division III. Geneva has posted 49 and 59 points in back-to-back playoff wins and showed its trademark opportunistic defense last week with a 94-yard kick return TD and a 70-yard pick-six that flipped the game. Their 19 takeaways are no accident — this group attacks, hits, and plays with confidence.

🔮 Prediction: Lubbock Christian 38 – Geneva 35
For all Geneva’s firepower, this feels like a matchup built for Lubbock Christian’s experience, depth, and physicality. LC has been here before — year after year — and every stumble in recent seasons (2019 title loss, 2023 semifinal heartbreak vs. Dallas Christian) has brought them right back to this moment. Geneva can absolutely score, but their defense has been vulnerable against elite run games, and Lubbock Christian has the most balanced attack they’ve faced all year. I think it'll be close, Lubbock Christian heads to the Championship game.

⭐ Semifinals Game #2
D2-1 Dallas Christian School-Mesquite @DCSChargers
D2-2 The Covenant School of Dallas

🔹 Dallas Christian enters the semifinals looking every bit like the dynasty program that has dominated TAPPS Division III for years. The Chargers have ripped off six straight wins and are fresh off a 51–13 dismantling of Covenant Christian — yet another entry in a season full of blowouts. Offensively, DC continues to overwhelm teams with its balance and efficiency: Logan Beck powered the ground attack with 139 yards and two touchdowns, while QB Luke Syvrud @LukeSyvrud delivered his best game yet, throwing for a career-high 228 yards on 81.8% passing. When the Chargers get both phases humming, they look exactly like the team that’s been to four straight state championship games.

But where Dallas Christian truly separates itself is on defense. Last week was a clinic in pass-rush brutality — the Chargers recorded nine sacks, led by the terrifying duo of Jaxson Barr and Hudson Deats, who combined for seven on their own. Deats continues to be a true barometer for DC’s success: when he records at least one sack, Dallas Christian is 7–1 this season. Add in ball-hawking efforts from players like Dylan Belt @DylanBelt7, and the DC defense looks like the most disruptive unit remaining in Division III.

🔹 Covenant School deserves credit for reaching the semifinal after a 42–24 win over New Braunfels Christian, and their four-game winning streak shows they’re peaking at the right time. Their offense has found rhythm, their playmakers are producing, and their confidence is rising — but this is a massive step up in competition. Covenant has dropped its last five meetings with Dallas Christian, including a 45–7 loss earlier this season, and stopping the Chargers’ physicality in the trenches remains a tall order.

🔮 Prediction: Dallas Christian 45 – Covenant School of Dallas 17
Dallas Christian looks faster, deeper, and more battle-tested, and unless Covenant can slow the game down and avoid falling behind early, this semifinal could follow a familiar script.

‘27 QB Luke Syvrud is a gamer.

Able to drop it in a bucket, or make plays with his legs, Syvrud is already looking like a veteran in his first year at the helm for the Chargers. Will be integral to DC’s success as they move into the postseason.

DYLAN BELT OH MY WORD‼️🤯

Won’t count due to an OPI - but an insane throw by Syvrud and one-handed grab by Belt.

One of the best in the state.

TAPPS Division III - District 2
Dallas Christian School-Mesquite @DCSChargersHead
Head Coach: Mike Wheeler

📝 2025 Outlook
Coming off a dominant run to the TAPPS Division III State Championship, Dallas Christian and legendary coach Mike Wheeler face their next great challenge: reloading after graduating generational talent. Wheeler, one of the most decorated coaches in state history with over 300 wins, will have to change the formula for a title defense. The focus will be on a massive, experienced offensive line and a hard-hitting defensive core to control games while a new signal-caller gets up to speed. This is still the team to beat in District 2, but their path to another title will be paved on the ground.

🔥 Things to Like
🔹 Charged line continuity and size: Senior linemen Luke Small and Gage Dean return as anchors inside, while the junior core—Brody Woodlee @b_wood75, Jay Belcher and Jashaun Smith @TrxulyxJay —brings maturity and cohesion on both trenches. Their presence supports both power run schemes and rugged defense.
🔹 Veteran, two-way force in the back seven: Senior Jaxson Barr and junior Jack Lemmond @JackLemmond_47 provide elite versatility and experience at linebacker and running back. Both logged significant playing time in the secondary and backfield in 2024 and are expected to anchor the Chargers’ physical identity in 2025.
🔹 Special teams dependability: Senior K/P Matthew Neuwirt @MatthewNeuwirt offers consistency in kicking and punting. His presence helps lock down field position battles, a staple of championship level teams.
🔹 Rising underclassmen: Sophomore WR/CB Dylan Belt @DylanBelt7 brings speed and versatility on both sides of the ball, with the potential to emerge as a key playmaker in the passing game and a lockdown presence in the secondary. At linebacker, 6'1", 185-pound sophomore Hudson Deats @TheDeats09 looks poised to step into a starting role after showing flashes in 2024, bringing size and toughness to the middle of the defense. Meanwhile, freshman OL Zephyr York @zephyryork, already 6'0" and 235 pounds, who could become a cornerstone of the offensive line for years to come, gets a year to learn behind some of the best in TAPPS.

👀 Things to Watch
🔹 Life After Legends: The biggest question facing the Chargers is how to replace the historic production of their graduated 2025 class. The offense lost Syracuse QB Luke Carney @LukeCarneyQB, Air Force ATH Gary Jefferson III @74choices_ and SMU WR William Nettles @SpeedyNettles. This trio was the engine of the championship run, and finding new playmakers to fill that colossal void is the team’s single greatest challenge.
🔹 The Quarterback Question: With Carney now at Syracuse, the keys to the offense are up for grabs. The leading candidate appears to be junior Luke Syvrud @LukeSyvrud, a standout defensive back from the 2024 team who is slated to take over under center. His transition will be the storyline of the season, as his ability to manage the offense will determine whether the Chargers can maintain a balanced attack or become one-dimensional.
🔹 Wearing the Crown: Dallas Christian enters 2025 with a target on its back as the defending state champion. Every opponent, from non-district tune-ups to district rivals, will be giving the Chargers their absolute best shot. How this team handles the pressure of being the hunted rather than the hunter will be critical to its success in a tough district and a competitive statewide playoff bracket.
