2012 Highlights
2013 HighlightsPersonal Statement
My name is Justin Denton, class of 2014, at Hillgrove High School in Powder Springs, GA. I ended the season as Cobb County's top scoring wide receiver, all county 1st team, all state honorable mention, all region 2nd team and honored by Cobb County Touch Down Club as the top receiver. For my most recent Hudl highlights check out http://www.hudl.com/athlete/o/468234/highlights/63391380.
I start at wide receiver and punt return but also play defensive back during key game situations. Football is my passion and I have been a student of the game for almost 12 years. I am an extremely hard worker with a ton of skill, confidence, heart, determination and athleticism. My abilities extend beyond the football field into the classroom and I know that that it takes 100% dedication in both areas to be a successful student-athlete. I am an outstanding student, loaded with character and leadership skills. I am excited to find an institution that offers a strong academic and football program in any part of the country.
