Maple Heights quarterback Shaq Washington dodges a tackle in the Mustangs' Division II state semifinal win over Lake Catholic last fall.The past couple of weeks have been pretty quiet on the recruiting side. The last scholarship offer that I have received is from Boston College.
I was excited about the offer. The school is known for its great educational program and that is a key factor in my college decision. The football program is also noticed for being one of the best teams in its conference, the Atlantic Coast Conference. So they definitely moved up on my list of schools that I have interest in.
One of the biggest things that has happened over the last few days is that I was honored with the Lou Groza Most Valuable Scholastics Player Award by the Cleveland Touchdown Club on March 20.
This is a big deal to me growing up watching some of my idols win this award like [former Glenville standout] Ted Ginn Jr. Then for me to win it for my junior season was a great accomplishment. Hopefully I could be the first two-year winner
