Carson Wilson: Lake Oswego's Defensive Force
Lake Oswego Lakers defensive end Carson Wilson tallied 12 sacks in his first season with the team, a remarkable feat considering he transferred from out-of-state just months prior. Wilson's impressive showing has earned him a starting role, and scouts are taking notice. The Class of 2026 standout's ability to quickly adapt to the OSAA 6A landscape has been a key factor in his success. As a transfer student, Wilson had to navigate unfamiliar surroundings, both on and off the field. His impressive speed and agility, however, allowed him to quickly make an impact. Wilson's impressive sack total has drawn comparisons to some of the top defensive linemen in the state. As the Lakers look to build on their strong 2025 campaign, Wilson will be a key component. Scouts are watching to see how Wilson will continue to develop and if he can maintain his high level of production throughout the season. His ability to dominate opposing offenses will be crucial in Lake Oswego's bid for a state title.
