Dominic Nicolosi:  Temple High School Football – 2027 RB/LB makes a statement at the  NUC All-American Game bringing home MVP honors !!!

Dominic Nicolosi, is a sophomore at Temple High School in Temple, Georgia. The 2026 athletic OL/DL recently competed in the NUC All-American Game in Savannah, Georgia and was tabbed as one of the best overall players on both levels at the event.

Nicolosi, a 2026 prospect, played and started as a sophomore at Temple High School in west Georgia this past season.  He was named a First Team All Region 4a D1 guy to go along with an All-State Honorable mention accolade.  He currently holds a 3.5 GPA and looks to continue his path in the game of football, eventually playing at the next level.

The 6-4 285 pound lineman showed off tremendous talent throughout the week.  Nicolosi played in both the “Varsity” and “Junior Varsity” games, the NUC-All American game is broken down into 2 separate events mainly divided by age and/or playing experience.  He played with a high level of maturity and composure for just a sophomore.  The athletic big man displayed a very quick first step, allowing him to fire off the football and get into opposing defenders before they could even get their hands up.  Lining up on both sides of the ball, as both an Offensive Lineman and Defensive Lineman really showcased his ability and desire to compete.  He even attempted and made an extra point!

 “To be seen by a different audience but at the same time to get better to compete with top notch guys and learn from a different coaching staff.  I had never played in a spread offense, and now I have!”
