Bethlehem Catholic’s Freddie Simmons and Imhotep Charter’s D.J. Moore are two of the top senior receivers in Eastern PA to watch in 2014.

Coatesville’s Amir Ealey and Imhotep Charter’s Naseir Upshur are two of the top tight ends in Eastern

Your Welcome Dave. Would you also be able to move him over to the Dist 12 2014 Players to Watch list as SR. Cardinal O’Hara. Under the tab of “Player Info”. Thank you very much

Mark Everton is not a Dist 1 Interboro player. He is a 2014 transfer to Cardinal O’Hara High School working under coach Dan Algeo.

Dave, I wasn’t being sarcastic about not playing. I heard a rumor that he may not play because of the chance of injury with bigger things on the horizon at Duke.

Ah, got ya Dave. I think with Harvey graduating and Shurmer with a year under his belt in the offense, Herron may make a run at some Philly receiving records this year. Maybe a bit optimistic but the kid is a hell of a player.

@Jive. I have him listed as a Athlete.

Is Jimmy Herron from LaSalle not playing this year? With 48 catches for 734 yards and 12 TD’s in his junior year, I can’t figure why he was left off of this list both times.
