Hewitt-Trussville's Devon Young: A Model of Balance
Devon Young's pinpoint accuracy from 50 yards out is a staple of the Huskies' offense, with 22 of 25 field goals attempted last season connecting beyond the 40-yard line. But what sets the Class of 2025 kicker apart is his commitment to excellence off the field. As a varsity starter and member of the AHSAA's 7A classification, Young has consistently maintained a 4.0 GPA, earning him a spot on the school's honor roll. His academic prowess has not hindered his football development, as he has worked tirelessly to hone his craft during the offseason. Young's summer has been filled with intense training and film study, as he prepares to take on an even larger role for the Huskies this fall. Scouts are watching to see how Young adapts to increased pressure and whether he can maintain his accuracy in high-stakes situations.
