Accuracy-Driven QB with Elite Arm Strength Committed to Cal
Nainoa Lopes, a 6-4.5, 180-lb Class of 2026 QB from Hawaii, stands out for his 67.4% completion rate, 2,055 yards, and 19 TDs in the 2024 season, paired with a 3.57 GPA and a strong arm that reads defenses instinctively. His differentiators include exceptional accuracy, versatility in rushing (187 yards, 3 scores), and a calm, intelligent personality that thrives under pressure—no injury history reported. Lopes chose Cal over FAU and San Jose State because he believes it offers the perfect developmental fit, making him a high-intensity, low-risk prospect ideal for teams seeking a QB who balances stats with leadership and adaptability.
