This is pretty cool for me to post as I went to HS with this kids Dad....

This season Pickerington (Ohio) North wide receiver Preston Bowman has established himself as one of the top 2025 prospects in central Ohio and college coaches have taken notice by inviting him to campus for game day visits.

“This fall I have been to Kentucky, Ohio State, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati and Ohio,” said Bowman of his visit plans. “Notre Dame invited me to a game so I’ll be going there Nov. 5 when they play Clemson and I might be going back to Ohio State when they play Michigan so that should be a lot of fun.”

My recruitment has been going very well, I didn’t know what to expect coming into this process. One very cool moment was when I had a good toe-tap catch on the sideline vs New Albany and I heard someone say “that was a great catch” and I looked over and it was Coach Hartline,” said Bowman. “So that was pretty cool.

Bowman currently holds two offers from Kentucky and Miami (Ohio) where his father, Geoffrey Bowman, played from 1996-99.

Winton Woods offensive tackle Raphael Greene confirmed to Eleven Warriors he’ll visit Ohio State on March 23 with several of his high school teammates. The 6-foot-6, 320-pound Greene has visited OSU twice as a recruit but hasn’t been on campus since last spring.

“Ohio State is a really good school and I’ve been up there before, this time when I go I really want to try and talk to as many coaches as I can,” Greene said. “Get them to know as much as they can about me. I already sort of have a relationship with coach (Justin) Frye, but I’m trying to build more of a relationship this time around.”

OSU has had success recruiting Winton Woods, landing alums such as Miyan Williams, Jerron Cage and most recently, Jermaine Mathews. Greene is not your typical Ohio prospect, as he moved to Cincinnati a few years ago from London, England. While he may not have the sentimental value one would have if he grew up cheering for OSU, Greene feels a connection to OSU because of the success past Winton Woods players have had with the Buckeyes.

“Since I’ve been in Ohio, Ohio State has been a big deal at my school. Especially with Jermaine and Miyan, of course we know all about them,” Greene said. “They bring out great players, and I am an Ohio State fan, it’s a really good school.”

Greene was a rugby player in London, then started playing high school football two years ago after his move.

Greene played right tackle in his first year at Winton Woods before moving to left tackle last year. And he might just be scratching the surface of the player he can become.
