5’9 D’Angelo Ponds is one of the best corners I’ve watched all year.
Somewhere there’s a DB coach sick right now because his coordinator wouldn’t let him pull the trigger on him and forced the “safe” 6’2 corner who has no hips but he gotta get him right.
What a game from the defensive back Makiye Howard class 26’ who played a huge part in the class LL quarterfinals playoff game defeating #1seed New Britain hurricanes 35-0 shutout!!
