The National Underclassmen will be throwing (8) Five-Star Showcases this Winter/Spring. The first of these events will be this Saturday in Orlando, Florida at Jones High School. These camps are invite-only and designed for legitimate DI prospects. The purpose of the camps is to have the top high school juniors and seniors compete versus other athletes from their region of the country. The NUC will take height, weight, reach, and then position specific drill work will be done prior to one-on-ones.

Last year was the National Underclassmen first attempt at hosting a Five-Star Showcase. That camp was held in New Jersey and 86 of the top rising juniors and seniors from the Northeast Region of the country attended this prestigious camp. Exactly 50% of the class of 2012 participants ended up signing either DI (32) (FBS) or DI-AA (FCS) (6) Scholarships. Four of the six attendees from the Class of 2013 already received multiple DI offers.

The National Underclassmen expects similar if not better numbers at all eight events this season. The great thing about the NUC Five-Star Showcases is that all information will be posted on our site in a timely fashion and visible for all colleges free of charge. So if you are a rising junior or senior that has already received a verbal or written offer please contact us in order to register for a NUC Five-Star Showcase in your area.
