Caravan DE DeShawn Johnson Makes Immediate Impact
Mount Carmel Caravan defensive end DeShawn Johnson recorded 12 tackles for loss in his first season with the team, helping the 8A Caravan secure a 10-win campaign. Johnson transferred from out-of-state powerhouse Lincoln High School in Tennessee, where he was a key contributor on the team's state championship squad. As a newcomer to the Illinois high school football scene, Johnson wasted no time making his presence felt. He started in every game, earning All-State honors and drawing attention from college scouts. With a strong summer of weightlifting and conditioning under his belt, Johnson is poised to take his game to the next level. As he enters his senior season, scouts will be watching to see if he can maintain his high level of production and continue to be a dominant force on the defensive line. Johnson's versatility and pass-rushing ability make him a coveted prospect in the Class of 2025.
