Are there any players that play another sport in high school(Excluding cross country)? For instance, I remember Jamacia Jackson from Sumter was a winger in high school. He played football at Carolina. Wes Knight from Wren was a track runner if I'm not mistaken, who is now in the MLS. Both were pretty good soccer players. Hadn't heard a lot about multi-sport players in recent times. Just wondering! Show Light!!!
Here's Ochocinco earlier this year visiting a Real club!
Mike Lindsey from USC was a member of USC track team as well as soccer.
Former USC RB Ryan Brewer played on several youth national teams as a midfielder growing up in Ohio.
Mark Bulcholz from atlanta played football and soccer at Clemson.
Just a few examples
From CN:
Thomas Winstead now playing at CofC was all-state in football and wrestling.
Kyle Maitland, Pennington Nieri, Thomas Touma, Mike Collins, Timmy Cunningham, Bradley Hollingsworth, Nick Palevich, PA Raad all play multipe sports
Zach Rhovat played BBall and Soccer at CN
Also, Alvin Green (SC Mr. Basketball in 2001/Coastal BBall standout/current Ast. BBall coach at Coastal) played in the Spring for Socastee.
hahahahahahahahahahahahhahahhaa
No, not that Alvin Green.
TJ Gimsley from Dillon. Kicker on teh footbal team who kicked two clutch game wiining field goals on Dillon's way to the State Championhsip in 2008 and 2009.
Brandon plays football for Wando
Brandon kicks for Wando , big difference between that and playing a position. Although with his speed he would have been a great WR for them.
MY HOMEBOY TYREL WAS A MULTI-SPORT ATHLETE AT LAKEWOOD HS STARING IN BASKETBALL AND SOCCER! NOW HE JUST MOONLIGHTS AS A SEMI-PROFESSIONAL WRESTLER!!!
Ethan Turner Union County Defender also ran Cross County, Wrestled, and runs track. 4 sports in one season is amazing
Stuart Hope for Chapin is a state championship wrestler and a heck of a soccer player.
Playing multiple sports is tremendously beneficial, for BOT physical and mental reasons. Basketball HOFer Hakeem Olajuwon often attributed his outstanding footwork to playing soccer in his native Nigeria.
Recently in our state, guys like Bruce Ellington, AJ Green, and Sydney Rice were outstanding multi-sport guys.
Further back, Anthony Johnson (long NBA career) was quarterback, shortstop/pitcher, and point guard for Stall High School.
Forrest Deans was a kicker on Chapin every year he played soccer. he caused them to when many games with his field goals like this year against newberry!!!!
BHP HAS DARRIUS WILLIAMS WHO PLAYS FOOTBALL,BASKETBALL,AND SOCCER
