On Saturday, high school football prospects from across the South converged on Baton Rouge, La. as they sought to showcase their skills in the NUC Five-Star Showcase. NUC President and CEO Dave Schuman along with NUC National Recruiting Analyst Barry Every evaluated the top players at the camp at Jones High School as several players performed in hopes of improving their stock in the all-important recruiting process.
Less than 100 players were chosen for the event, where they took part in one-on-ones and various other drills, to be evaluated by the coaches. From the pool of players that participated, MVPs were chosen for each position, in addition to the one player who exemplified leadership among his peers.
Here is 11-25:

13) Ralph Singleton Jr. of Ellender Memorial High in Louisiana was an impressive wideout. While he may be small at 5-9, 158, he is very explosive and has excellent hands. Furthermore, he is very difficult to cover on shorts routes with his great quickness.
