Use to race bikes at Hudson Dragway in the late 80's. Between lenoir and Hickory. I worked at the Lowes In lenoir as a flooring specialist from 2012-2016. Small world sometimes.

Check out the junior year highlights of my great nephew:

Some of his ankle breaking runs are hilarious. And you can see he just has a gear most other high school players cannot compete with.

I think it's going to come down to Georgia, Pitt and Syracuse for him.
Dang, that kid's got speed, quickness, a little power, excellent vision, and good hands! If he were bigger, I'd say call Jerry now!

Yeah by the end of his senior year next spring I fully expect him to be a sub 10.5 100 meter man and a sub 4.4 40. Yes I said it.. I expect the kid to run in the 4.3s by the time he reaches college. Barring injuries that should turn into sub 4.3 by the time he finishes up college which will mean a trip to the combine with a chance to really open some eyes. All the men in his lineage, his granddad (my brother) and his dad (my nephew) both filled out to about 190. But neither of this is over 5'8" This kid is trending more towards 5'10" - 6' and if he fills out like the rest of my family he will be a comfortable 195-200 with that ridiculous speed. Got Dorsett's top end speed with Emmitt's acceleration and Drew Pearson's hands. Then on top of it he's got some Dez level dawg in him. He's got NFL wide receiver written all over him. It has been fun to watch him grow into what he's become and will continue to be fun to watch him at the next level.

Apparently my great nephew has committed to Boston College.. He will get a great education but might suffer some football purgatory up there. But it aint real till signing day so there is still time for him to come to his senses! LOL!

My daughter is engaged and the wedding is scheduled for January 11.....I've known the family for 40 years, her fiance is in the Air Force, he and my daughter went to HS together, my wife was his mom's chemistry teacher. Good kid...he did it right, asked me for her hand and then he got down on one knee. She should be done with school in December.

Thanks.

The crazy part is that he has never been coached for catching.

He’s 13u and only started catching last fall after he got back from Cooperstown.

Everything he does is from watching videos and other kids.

I’d love to take credit but I’m a lacrosse guy(so was he until last year). He’s putting in the work, I just drive him, make sure he has enough water and watch him play.
