Ohio high school football 2024 | Top 10 Akron-area quarterbacks to watch

As we prepare for the start of the 2024 Ohio high school football season, we’re breaking down the top players by position. Throughout the preseason, we’re ranking the top 10 Greater Akron quarterbacks, running backs, receivers/tight ends, offensive linemen, defensive linemen, linebackers, defensive backs, specialists and two-way players.

Today, we look at the top 10 quarterbacks, starting with Walsh Jesuit’s Keller Moten, who led the Warriors to a regional  final last season and was named to the Division II all-state team.

Expectations are high at Walsh Jesuit with Keller Moten back under center for the Warriors.

Keller Moten

Walsh Jesuit, 5-foot-11, 185 pounds, Class of 2025

Moten was a Division II third-team All-Ohio selection as a junior and is an incredible dual-threat quarterback. He was 131-of-217 passing for 1,913 yards and 20 touchdowns last season. He also rushed for 754 yards and 13 touchdowns, which is impressive because he sat out the fourth quarter of seven games when the outcome was already well decided.

Gabriel Mansel

Copley, 6-1, 190 pounds, Class of 2025

Mansel certainly made a name for himself last season as a transfer from St. Vincent-St. Mary. The senior threw for 1,431 yards and 14 touchdowns and rushed for 1,003 yards and 10 touchdowns in seven games.

Nordonia quarterback Ben Chesser has a ton of skill position veterans at his disposal this season.

Chesser was an honorable mention Suburban League National Conference selection last season after throwing for 1,836 yards and 18 touchdowns. He also rushed for 327 yards and four scores.
