Warwick athlete Keon Batts is a playmaker who provides a spark on offense and defense. Batts made tough catches in the slot while batting down balls on defense. Batts comes in a smaller frame but he uses his speed to his advantage.
Rising senior Messiah Delhomme was one of the top players I watched in the morning session. He played amazing coverage from the safety spot covering sideline to sideline. Twice I saw him run from the middle of the field to make an interception in the corner endzone.
Saint Michael defensive end Joshua Jackson (6-foot-3, 235) showed his versatility as he was one of a handful of players that participated in the Big Man camp as an edge rusher and the 7-on-7 drills as a linebacker. He won reps attacking the tackling pylon and he defended the middle of the field during passing drills. Jackson has offers from Campbell University and Grinnell College.
Remington Moss is a Wisconsin commit and a Rivals 3-star recruit. Not sure why he is under the radar but I feel he is one of the best players in the state. Maybe it was his early commitment that kept him off the recruiting headlines but he plays at a high level and he is a leader in the defensive backfield.
Rising senior Eamon Cuffee won the MVP for Granby after helping the Comets to the championship game. Cuffee not only scored touchdowns during the 7-on-7; he was the emotional leader. Cuffee was selected All-Tidewater defensive back and All-State at receiver. He made nine interceptions on defense and grabbed 43 catches for 885 yards and seven touchdowns.
Lake Taylor had two prospects that stood out at the Battle at the Beach. Rising senior Jerome Brown Jr (6-foot-2, 195) was the Titans most athletic player. He had two touchdowns playing tight end. However, it is on the defensive end that Brown shines. He was a 1st Team All-State performer at linebacker after being credited with close to 150 tackles. Brown says he has interest from Maryland, Norfolk State, James Madison, North Carolina A & T, and Virginia.
Rising senior Darian McKenzie (5-foot-9, 185) He show good hands during his routes. He was 2nd team All-Region running back for the Titans. He had 985 rushing yards with 325 receiving yards and 10 total touchdowns.
Rising senior Drevyon Tharrington also had a big day on both offense and defense for the Comets. During his junior year, Tharrington was 2nd team All-Region at running back. He gained 836 yards with 13 rushing touchdowns while adding six receptions and two scores out of the backfield. Tharrington played well defensively during the 7-on-7.
Churchland rising senior Jekai Lee (6-foot-6, 200) has the look of a prospect who will develop into a college player. Lee has a knack for stripping the ball and deflecting passes using his wingspan to knock the ball away. He played both linebacker and defensive end but he seems like a natural edge rusher. He participated in the Big-Man competition at the Battle for the Beach 7-on-7 tournament.
The top cover prospect for Indian River was rising senior Trey Voskanyan (5-foot-11,173) who manned the deep routes from his safety position. Last year Voskanyan finished with six interceptions including two he returned for touchdown. He added 28 tackles and 11 pass breakups. He was selected 1st team All-Region while helping Indian River reach the State semi-finals. He has Interest from North Carolina Central, North Carolina A&T, New Hampshire and East Carolina.
Sophomore Jason Preston had a couple of touchdowns and interceptions throughout the 7-on-7 tournament and was one of Indian Rivers best players. As a sophomore, Preston had 35 receptions including a 70-yard touchdown.
