Tight End Caleb Moore Makes Instant Impact for West Des Moines Valley Tigers
Caleb Moore, a 4A tight end for the West Des Moines Valley Tigers, has made a name for himself in his first year with the program. The Class of 2026 transfer from out-of-state has quickly earned a starting role, hauling in 12 receptions for 157 yards in a single preseason practice. Moore's impressive showing has caught the attention of coaches and scouts alike. At 6-foot-4 and 225 pounds, Moore's size and athleticism make him a formidable force on the field. His ability to create separation and make plays down the seam has been particularly impressive. Moore's transfer from a smaller out-of-state school has allowed him to adapt to the 4A level, where he's found himself surrounded by top-notch competition. As the Tigers prepare for the upcoming season, scouts are watching to see how Moore adapts to the speed and physicality of the IHSAA 4A level, particularly in the passing game.
