St. John Bosco edge rusher Dutch Horisk, a three-star recruit in Oregon's 2026 class, erupted for three sacks Friday night in a 27-14 win over Santa Margarita.
Horisk, 6-2, 240 from Bellflower, California, used the speed rush to dump the Eagles quarterback three times in the first half.
He committed August 17 of last year from the school that brought the Ducks Matayo Uiagalelei. He's a high-effort player who won Defensive MVP in the Trinity League last season with 11.5 sacks, 85 tackles and five pass breakups as a junior.
In the 247Sports Composite he ranks as the No. 957 prospect, but he keeps making big plays on film in the top league in Southern California prep football. The Ducks could use some of that Bosco tenacity today against Rutgers, a team that throws the football 35 times a game while giving up a season total of 20 sacks, worst in the Big Ten.

Horisk's big night illustrates how you play matchup football. If a defender has the right tackle on skates, the best technique is to pin your ears back and beat him off the ball, let it rip. Playing with relentless effort, training like a fiend, if he doesn't get a ratings bump by the end of the year it's a cockeyed travesty.
