Easton Yoshino’s high school career started off with a bang in 2019 as he led Kaiser to a 9-2 record while throwing for 1,631 yards and 20 touchdowns. Unfortunately, COVID-19 canceled his sophomore season in 2020. Over the summer Easton honed his craft aided by attending a quarterback’s camp in Texas and working in the weight room to have a bigger junior campaign.

The 6’1”, 185-pound, 2023 gunslinger has a strong and accurate arm and footwork while also showing good leadership on the field. After all the hard work put into his game, Yoshino is ready to showcase his skills to college football coaches during the 2021 season.

In an exclusive Recruiting News Guru interview, I caught up with Easton to talk about his high school career at Kaiser as he prepares for his junior season.
