Within that mix of players are five of the top six players in the state of Wisconsin as determined by Rivals.com.  It includes the #1 tackle in the entire country, 6'7, 315 offensive tackle Josh Oglesby from St. Francis and the No. 10 ranked running back in the country in John Clay from Racine Park.
