National Prep Football Association Rising Freshman All American Game

This past Saturday July 5th in North Miami at FIU Biscayne campus Josh McKenzie of Wall NJ represented & played in this all star game for the second time & did not disappoint in a team North loss vs team South 28-19. Josh aka the D-Train scored two touchdowns & a extra point conversion as he went both ways at tailback & cornerback & walked away with the team North MVP. The game was close at the start of the fourth quarter with team south leading 21-19 & team north marching down the field behind McKenzies power running game but a costly turnover resulting in a team south touchdown was to much to overcome. Josh left everything he had on the field only missing one play over four quarters of physical football. Josh is an amazing athlete who's resume is filled with remarkable accomplishments in football & wrestling. Last night once again he proved why he is ranked #2 in the class of 2018 top 100 prospects by the NPFA. Last month the National Junior High wrestling rankings had Josh sitting at the top of leader board with the #1 ranking in the nation. The Star Ledger has been covering Josh's training regiment & competitions & are in the process of a project documentary on a highly recruited athlete in NJ.
