Over the weekend, several 2023 Clemson commits posted impressive performances in their high school matchups. We take a look at some notable moments from games across the nation.
Dee Crayton (LB) led the charge in Denmark High School's (Ga.) magnificent comeback win over Harrison (Ga.). His team trailed 21-3 in the first half but rallied late, scoring 22 unanswered points to secure the win. Crayton scored on a pick-six in the first half. In the fourth quarter, he scored the game-winning rushing touchdown:
After the victory, Crayton took a visit to Death Valley for the game against Furman:
Christopher Vizzina (QB) enjoyed one of his best outings of the season Thursday night in a game that was moved up because of the weather. He threw for 274 yards and three touchdowns. The five-star was 22-27 passing and ran for a touchdown in Briarwood Christian's 35-34 loss to Pelham (Ala.).
AJ Hoffler (EDGE) showcased his defensive prowess in Woodward's (Ga.) rivalry matchup against Marist. He had five tackles, one TFL, and one sack in the 28-21 win. He also excelled in a blocking role in the team's rushing attack.
Noble Johnson (WR) had four catches for 42 yards in Rockwall's (Tx.) 19-11 loss to prosper (Tx).
In the week leading up to the game, Johnson posted a video of him training with coach Margin Hooks, one of the nation's most respected wide receiver coaches. Johnson has focused on refining his technique throughout his senior season. Also, he's now calling himself "Mr. Death Valley" on Twitter.
Peter Woods (DL) had five tackles, 2 TFLs, and one sack in Thompson's (AL) win over Spain Park (AL). On Saturday, he appeared at Clemson's home game with a boot on his foot. There are no updates available on his status.
Coming off an offensive player of the game selection last week, Ian Reed (OL) led Vandegrift to a 45-0 win over Midway (Tx.). Vandegrift has outscored opponents a combined 90-0 in two September games.
