Every weekend in the fall, thousands of high school football teams line up and take their shot at prep glory. The Sunday morning Prep Tracker is your final stop for the names, numbers and scores that mattered to Ohio State's recruiting efforts.
HAUSMANN HAS BIG GAME IN MOELLER LOSS
Hausmann had a 11 receptions, but it wasn't enough on Friday.
Perennial power Don Bosco Prep traveled from New Jersey to the great state of Ohio to play Moeller Friday. The Ironmen dominated the stat sheet and the scoreboard as they gained 459 total yards and defeated Moeller 31-14.
Buckeye commit, Jake Hausmann, still put up good numbers in the loss. Hausmann finished the game with 11 catches, 103 yards and a touchdown.

Go here to see highlights and read a recap of the game.
FULLER DOES IT ALL IN VICTORY
2016 DB target Jordan Fuller is healthy and it is showing on the field. Friday night he scored three touchdowns and completed a two-point conversion pass in his team's win.
Per northjersey.com:
Most of the night’s focus was on Fuller, one of New Jersey’s most highly recruited athletes. NV/OT coach Brian Dunn used him at receiver and as a Wildcat quarterback, and Fuller delivered.
Fuller carried 19 times for 158 yards and two touchdowns and caught four passes for 94 yards and a touchdown. He also completed a shovel pass on a two-point conversion.
Fuller is dangerous in the return game as well.
Fuller also had a punt return for a touchdown called back because of a penalty, the second time that’s happened in two games. But he was thrilled to be put in a position to make that big a difference.
“I know I’ve been injured in the past, but I thank God I’m not now,” Fuller said. “I just want to make plays for the team.”
Jordan Fuller is a dynamic player on both sides of the ball and on special teams. He hits all of the check marks for an Urban Meyer Ohio State player.
CLARK AND SIBLEY STANDOUT AS HOBAN IMPROVES TO 4-0
When QB Danny Clark transferred to Hoban many thought the duo of Clark and RB Todd Sibley would give Hoban one of the state's best backfields. Through four games Clark and Sibley have lived up to the expectations.
From cleveland.com:
Two touchdown passes from Danny Clark got things started early for Hoban, hitting Nate Bauer on a 22-yard strike and Garrett Houser from 4 yards deep to gain a quick 14 point lead.
Sibley added two rushing touchdowns in the second quarter and Hoban had the game in hand at halftime with a 42-0 lead. The only question left was if Hoban would be able to hold on for its fourth-straight shutout?
After not allowing a touchdown through the first three weeks, Woodward ended that streak late in the fourth quarter. Quarterback Burrow Alexander connected with Marcellus Hunt on a 35-yard touchdowns with just 41 seconds remaining.
Sibley, Clark and company will go to Akron St. Vincent Mary next week and will try to get to 5-0.
JAELEN GILL GOES WILD IN WESTERVILLE SOUTH WIN
Jaelen Gill scored 5 of his team's 6 touchdowns. He's only a sophomore.
Jaelen Gill is an Ohio State all purpose back 2018 target. Friday night he showed why the Buckeyes are in pursuit of a sophomore in high school. Gill rushed for 267 (10.7 ypc) and five touchdowns in South's 42-30 win over Canal Winchester.
Gill's coach, Kyle Stout, spoke to ThisWeekSports.com:
“At the end of the day, you get the ball to your best players,” said Stout, whose team had led 28-7 at halftime. “Jordan is having a great season. We have a lot of trust in him. We liked the matchup against one of their cornerbacks.”
A recap of Jaelen Gill's scores:
Gill later provided insurance with his final touchdown from 69 yards. He also scored from 16, 10, 53 and 8 yards as the Wildcats improved to 2-2.
Jaelen Gill's crystal ball is currently at 100% for Ohio State.
GIVE McCALL THE BALL
Demario McCall's ankle injury appears to be well behind him. He had two touchdowns of 50+ yards in North Ridgeville's 23-13 win over Olmsted.
