Charles Caper – East Strousburg – PA – 2025 – Physcial DB takes home MVP at NUC’s Winterfest Prospect Showcase !!

Charles Capers: East Strousburg High School South Football: 2025 DB named MVP at NUC Winterfest Prospect Showcase!!!

Charles Capers, a rising Junior at East Strousburg High School South in East Strousburg, Pennsylvania recently attended the Winterfest Prospect Showcase presented by NUC Sports and walked away with some MVP hardware.  The Prospect showcase put on display some of the Tri-State’s top football talent from middle school through high school.  Players participated in NFL Combine like drills, agility work, individual positional skills, and one on one competition periods.  Overall, Capers turned heads and is now being looked at as one of the area’s top players.

Charles, a 2025 prospect, attends East Strousburg High School South in Pennsylvania.  He had a fantastic day dominating all phases of the event.  He ran solid times, clocking a 5.8 in the 40, a 4.31 shuttle, and had a broad jump of 9.2”.  In the competition phase he played fast and physical.  At 5.10” 180 pounds, his physicality and footwork may be his best attributes.  As a DB he used his strength and power to press and jam opponents at the line of scrimmage throwing opponents off their routes and disrupting the timing of his opponents throws.  Capers displayed great foot and hand placement when it came to his strike.  The athleticism he displayed allowed his to mirror his WR’s and break on balls.  He used his football IQ to play the angles in coverage and drive on throws with very little wasted movement.  

It will be exciting to see how Capers continues to develop and mature on and off the field.  His ability to play multiple positions, in terms of DB allows him to see more reps and more plays which will benefit him in his upcoming season.
