Harley Bowman '23 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing football since I was walking.  In pee-wee, first through sixth grade, I played both offensive line and middle linebacker.  That carried forward through junior high school.  My freshman year, I got tapped from JV to play on varsity after my first game.  Initially, I was playing both defense and offense.  However, our Head Coach, Watkins, doesn't allow for his offensive lineman to play both ways.  My love has always been defense.  I was allowed to play a couple of plays (4 plays) against Pleasant Grove last year in the playoffs because they needed a stop.  I had three tackles and one and a half sacks.  I have been all district since my freshman year.  I finished my senior year by being named Offensive Lineman of the year.

My senior year we were 7 seconds away from beating Carthage.  They COULD NOT get to the quarterback through me.  Unfortunately - our qb and running back had a bad handoff.

My grades are good.  I love God.  I do not drink or smoke.  I am respectful.

I love the game.  I love my team.  I work hard.  I am fast.  I have great foot speed.  No one can out Hussle me.  And YOU CAN NOT OUT WORK ME. Every morning I drove from Meridian to Glen Rose, and every evening I drove back.  I understand what it takes to sacrifice.  I lost my dad suddenly in July 2022. He was my hero and my biggest fan.  My mom has been taking care of the three of us.  I really want to make her proud and see my dream come true.
