GameTime Recruiting & Consulting CEO Rodney Cox joins top 2025 Senior Bowl Standout athletes
Surprise, AZ – The 2026 GameTime Senior Bowl, an invitation-only showcase of high school football recruiting talent, is scheduled to take place from January 9 to 11, 2026, at Ottawa University (OUAZ) in Surprise, Arizona. Now entering its fourth season, the event brings together 60 standout high school seniors nominated by college programs for a multi-day evaluation before recruiters, scouts, and fans alike.
This year’s Senior Bowl introduces a new collaborative component with Phoenix Raceway, known nationally for hosting the NASCAR Cup Series Championship. The partnership aims to highlight shared values in athletic performance and discipline across sports sectors.
“We are pleased to collaborate with GameTime Senior Bowl and contribute to an event that supports athlete development and recognition,” said Latasha Causey, President of Phoenix Raceway.
This year marks the third of four consecutive seasons hosted at OUAZ. The university’s athletic infrastructure continues to support the event’s goals of performance measurement and athlete exposure in a structured, competitive environment.
“Our campus remains committed to supporting national athletic showcases like this one,” said Kristin Steele, Senior Associate Athletic Director at OUAZ. “It provides an opportunity to witness the next level of talent in high school football.”
