Kevin Marks is selected at #24
by Andy Hilton, recruit757
There are a lot of deserving candidates in the 757 for the Fab 30. Our #24 player is the second in our Fab 30 from Norview.
In last year’s Fab 30, 28 of the 30 athletes went on to play Division I football. One decided to go to prep school and one has moved on to Division II. We’ve been watching the players in this year’s Fab 30 for as much as four years already as they head into their senior seasons. Yes, we have our eyes on the middle school ranks and we’re already seeing players at that level that seem destined to make this list when their senior year comes.
This list is all about the rising seniors and every one of them already holds college scholarship offers.
#24 Kevin Marks, Norview RB 6-0 185
Kevin has been a fixture on the camp scene all spring and summer. We’ve spotted him at the Nike Opening Regional in Northern Virginia, JMU camp, Virginia Tech camp, and lots of others as we close in on the start of the season. Just a few weeks ago, Marks announced his college decision and will attend the University of Buffalo next fall.
Marks made his mark in a prolific offense last season, rushing for 920 yards and 18 touchdowns for a Pilots team that had their eyes on a state title in 2015. 2016 could prove to be a bigger year and they’ll face many of the same challenging opponents that they encountered last year. Norview plays Highland Springs on the road on September 3, and they could very likely see local powers like Indian River and Hampton in the playoffs, just as they did in 2015.
Norview has a lot of seasoned and ready seniors on this year’s squad. It could be time to see the Pilots fly higher.
