“Jaxson Dart is one of the most dominant players I’ve seen in 30 years coaching at the high school level. He’s a cool customer who can completely take over a game with his arm strength and accuracy. He’s also dangerous when he leaves the pocket and improvises.”
Louis Wong
Head Coach head coach at Westlake High
