Lewis and Michael Robinson of the San Francisco 49ers are former Blue Devils in the league.
There are several other former Varina High or Varina recreation stars currently playing well at the college level, including Victor “Macho” Harris of Highland Springs (Va. Tech cornerback) and Alan-Michael Cash of Varina High (N.C. State DE). Not to mention Varina’s sensational Class of 2007.
“We’re going to have a lot of guys going into the league from Varina Rec,” Lewis said.
And all of the other organizations as well.
Four former Central Region standouts entered the league this offseason in Hermitage’s Fontel Mines (Chicago, TE), L.C. Bird’s Jason Snelling (Atlanta, RB), Highland Springs’ Noland Burchette (Atlanta, DE) and George Wythe’s Jesse Pellot-Rosa (N.Y. Jets, WR).
“The opportunity is here,” Lewis said. “The opportunity is now.” |
