Most everyone reading this probably has a favorite football dynamic duo. It could be Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase, Max Montoya and Anthony Muñoz, even Sauce Gardner and Coby Bryant.
Football, which many would call the ultimate team game, doesn’t work without great combinations of players. A great quarterback is nothing if his receivers can’t catch the ball. A great cornerback can only do so much if the other team is attacking his much weaker counterpart across the field.

Grant Beerman (33) and Cam Thomas are both expected to play Power Four college football after their high school careers.
Beerman and Thomas make up arguably the most fearsome pair of linebackers in the state for this upcoming season. Beerman, a rising senior, is a three-star recruit who has committed to Purdue. Thomas is a four-star recruit and the nation’s 18th-best linebacker in the class of 2026 according to 247Sports.
Beerman led Lakota West in tackles last season and finished with 3.0 sacks, 12.0 tackles for loss and two forced fumbles.

Beerman and Thomas are 6-foot-4 and 6-2 respectively, and each weighs about 220 pounds. Offenses are not going to look forward to playing Lakota West this season.
