Decatur Central's Hester picking up offers With a brother who plays for the Indianapolis Colts and was a standout at Duke University, it is hard to fathom there was a time where Ezekiel Hester didn't play football. Instead, the Decatur Central quarterback got his start in sports as a basketball player, but was always drawn to the gridiron due to his size, speed and athleticism. Fortunately for him and the Hawks, football won out, as Hester is following in the footsteps of his brother and current Indianapolis Colts wide receiver, Elijah Pancol. "The most exciting thing I enjoy about football is taking the field with my teammates. They really make the game fun because of the bonds we have and the brotherhood we have as a whole. Another thing is making the calls, making the defense wrong with my eyes and knowing what I've got pre snap based off of alignment and coverage," Hester told Hoosier Prep Gridiron. Over the years, Kyle Enright has enjoyed having strong quarterbacks lead the Hawks, and this season could be no different as Hester is prime to take over the keys of the offense. The 6-foot-3-inch, 195 pound, Class of '29 prospect enters this season with several offers already under his belt and a desire to get Decatur Central back to Lucas Oil Stadium Thanksgiving weekend. Since Enright arrived at Decatur Central, the Hawks have played for three state championships, winning a title in 2024. Last fall, Decatur Central lost to Brownsburg in the regional. "The thing that stands out to me from last year is we lost a lot of key players, but what people don't know about is we have a lot of great talent that were under the key players' wings last year. I feel like almost everyone is doubting us as a team, but I am going to build the connection with my teammates and lead my teammates to success," he said. The signal caller enters the 2026 season with a slew of big time goals. "My goals for the season are to throw for 1,800-plus yards, rush for 400-plus and win Player of the Week in our Week 1 game against Avon. Being one of the top uprising prospects in Indiana doesn't really bother me. I don't pay attention to critics. I just focus on me with my head down and work," Hester said. After a very successful summer that saw Hester attend several camps and get on national radars, he currently holds offers from Purdue, UConn., Western Michigan, Miami (OH) and Austin Peay. Hester, Enright and Decatur Central open the season Aug. 21 against Avon. See less
