Pittsburgh 7^th/8^th/9th grade NUC Schuman's Outstanding Performance List

Ben D'Annunzio

9^th grade, RB

Robert Byrd, WV

5-11, 180

9^th Grade Overall MVP

An explosive athlete that is a great leader, strong and aggressive at the point of attack. Big ben reeled off a 4.65 40, 34 inch vert, 9'2 broad, 4.32 shuttle and 20 reps on 135. I think its fair to say coupled with his sick 1 on 1's this Overall MVP is on his way to big things.

Brett Zanotto

9^th Grade, LB

Franklin HS, PA

6-0.5, 199

Combine King, Fastest Man, LB MVP

Brett did it all! 4.63 40, 9'1 broad, 30.5 inch vert, 32 reps on 135, 4.12 shuttle. Those stats are mind boggling for a senior, let alone a freshman. Look for Brett to be one of the premier LB's in the class of 2015,

Zack Blystone

9^th Grade, DL

Chanlenoi HS, PA

6-1.5, 226

Strongest Man, DL MVP

Yo Zack, your killing them with your 1 on 1's. The DL MVP used his strength (26 reps on 155), his speed, 4.54 shuttle and his size 226 lbs, to dominate his OL counterparts.

Savion Johnson

8^th Grade, RB

Tridelphia MS, WV

5-9.5, 182

8^th grade overall MVP & RB MVP
