Devon Young: DeMatha Catholic's Rising Star
DeMatha Catholic's Devon Young has made a statement on the field, recording 4 interceptions in 5 spring scrimmages, including a 50-yard pick-six against Gonzaga College High School. The Class of 2026 cornerback's impressive play has earned him a Power 4 offer, making him the first Stags player to receive such recognition. Young's speed and agility have drawn comparisons to top college cornerbacks, and he's been clocked at 4.5 seconds in the 40-yard dash. As a member of the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference (WCAC), Young will face stiff competition from programs like St. John's College High School and Gonzaga College High School. Scouts are watching to see how Young adapts to the physicality of high school football, particularly in the secondary. Will he be able to use his quickness to stay one step ahead of opponents, or will he struggle with the increased size and strength of his opponents?
