On July 6th, 2020, MaxPreps.com posted their Top 25 N.J. High School Football Players for the 2021 Season. Two of those players, are from Camden H.S., Camden, NJ. They are, - Darian "Duce" Chestnut: 5'-11" 180 lbs CB
- Alijah Clark: 6'-1" 180 lbs CB. At no#6 on the list, Duce Chestnut: is one of those players that can play at a very high level at any position, regardless if it's at; Safety, C.B., Q.B. or Kick Return Specialist. There
is no drop off at any of those positions when he plays. Duce is a threat to score from any where on the field once he gets the ball. On defense, he has the innate ability to be in the right place at the right time and is excellent at run support. Duce has 12 college offers, including; Arizona St., Nebraska, Rutgers U. and Virginia. Tech. Coming in at no#12 on the list, Alijah Clark: who is a flat out "ball-hawk" but not just on defense. If they're in man coverage, it's almost assured that Clark will not only catch the ball but better than even money, he'll score. However, as good as he is on offense, he excels on defense. Clark is a tenacious C.B. with the ability to track the ball carrier in any formation. Once dialed in, he's usually the first one to tackle or at least hold the runner up until help arrives. His ability to run down passes while hardly breaking stride gives him the advantage over the defender, who most of the time is trailing trying to find the ball while in flight. Two prominent programs, Boston College & Syracuse, secured offers to Clark but on Feb 6th, 2020, he decided to stay right here in Jersey and attend Rutgers U.
