Deshae Diggs: 2028 Athlete named NUC Winterfest Prospect Showcase Overall MVP !!!

Deshae Diggs, an eighth grader at Urban Promise Middle School in South Comden, New Jersey recently attended NUC’s Winterfest Prospect Showcase and walked away with some MVP hardware.  The Prospect Camp showcased some of the tri states top football playing 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, Diggs made his presence known and is now being looked at as one of the area’s top players. 

He had a fantastic day dominating all phases of the event.  Diggs ran an excellent 40 yard dash clocking in at 4.94 40 a 4.84 shuttle and had a broad jump of 8.3”.  In the competition phase he was clearly ahead of other athletes running crisp precise routes.  Defensively he made some fantastic plays winning his one on one reps in all phases. 

In terms of physical ability, his speed may be his best attribute.  He separated himself from other players coming in with an all business approach.  As a DB he used his shiftiness to get free releases off the line of scrimmage displaying his ability to beat opponents.  Offensively he showed his great speed on both short, intermediate, and long routes.

It will be exciting to see what Diggs will bring to the table as he becomes an older, wiser and more mature athlete.  His ability to play multiple positions allows him to see more reps and more plays which inevitably will benefit him as he progresses in his career.  Development happens with experience and this young man has displayed that he deserves to be a varsity player no matter what school he attends!
