A Record‑Breaking Performance
At the 2026 Viking Football Spring Combine, sophomore wide receiver Max Cook clocked a 4.36‑second 40‑yard dash, establishing a new program benchmark that eclipsed the previous mark held by Blake Moser.
Cook’s athletic résumé extends beyond football; he finished second in the 4A state championships in the 400‑meter dash and brings a 6‑foot‑3, 185‑pound frame that has already produced 11 touchdown receptions and a defensive return score last season.
The competition’s depth was evident as Moser’s earlier 4.47‑second dash was recently trimmed to 4.41 at a national recruiting event in Arizona, while Jayvian Ferrell’s 4.48‑second effort was similarly improved to 4.47, highlighting a crowded field of emerging talent.
College scouts took immediate notice, as Cook already holds an offer from the University of Idaho and his standout combine showing is poised to attract a cascade of additional scholarship opportunities.
