## Resource

Jake Flores, a redshirt freshman who played guard and tackle in high school, stunned everyone by dominating every first-team rep at center during UW’s spring practice—stepping in after both starting centers were sidelined with injuries. Standing at 6’5” and 305 lbs, Flores adapted impressively, earning praise from Coach Jedd Fisch and offensive line coach Michael Switzer for his quick learning, intelligence, and technical skill. He’s now getting hands-on coaching from recovering center Landen Hatchett, and while he’ll need to build more strength, his unexpected rise has made him a breakout player to watch for the Huskies’ future offensive line.
