Cash was recently selected for the 2025 Three Rivers League Football Conference 1st Team.

Cash is a dynamic, hard-hitting linebacker for Lake Oswego High School, known for his exceptional field awareness, quick decision-making, and relentless pursuit of the ball. A leader both on and off the field, he brings intensity and passion to every snap. His strength, agility, and tackling ability make him a key playmaker for his team’s defense.  He loves football and competing. He has a very strong work ethic on the field, in the weight room, and in the classroom. He has good size and D1 genetics due to his dad, who played football at Nebraska, and his mom, who played basketball at Portland State.

As a freshman, he was voted as Defensive Player of the Year and also Most Inspirational Player. As a sophomore, he was a starting linebacker on the varsity team, alongside a special teams starter, and made an impact during the playoff run to the state championship game. In his junior year, he led the team in tackles and was selected to the 1st team in the Three Rivers Conference.

Whether stopping the run, dropping into coverage, or blitzing the QB, he consistently delivers impactful plays. Off the field, he is committed to his academics, currently maintaining a 3.4 GPA, and is interested in majoring in business/economics.

His primary goal is to become a Division 1 football player. He is currently (Fall 2025) a starter, leader, and dominant presence on the Lake Oswego defense as a junior. He wants to lead the Lakers to the State Championship after finishing second last year (2024). He always has the mindset that he is the best player on the field and loves the pressure moments. He wants to be remembered as one of the greatest linebackers to come out of Oregon, showing everyone in the country what type of player he is.
