It's nowhere near the biggest event of 2010. High school sports in Idaho and big time states such as Texas are far from comparable. Idahoans have many things on their agenda before football. While entertainment on gridiron isn't necessarily a pastime, the Boise combine isn't necessarily talent deprived.
Lawrence Perkins (Juneau Douglas) trekked all the way from Alaska to dominate the 09' junior session, taking home the Overall MVP and Fastest Man awards. The 6'0.5 201 lb star had a 30.5 inch vertical, 9'0 broad jump, ran a 4.48 shuttle and was in a league of his own during 1 on 1's.
Brady Swansen (Springville) was a terrific QB and nice athleticism. He had a 31 inch vertical, bench pressed 155 lbs 20 times and ran a 4.59 shuttle in addition to zipping the ball down field like a pro. Regardless of the competition, Swansen is a noteworthy QB.
Taylor Baker (Springuillo) had terrific athleticism and turned some serious heads last year. The 5'11 149 lb Baker had a 32 inch vertical, 8'7 broad jump, ran a 4.40 shuttle and did a top notch job during 1 on 1's. Baker, a current senior, will definitely be playing somewhere next year despite his lack of size.
"Boise is a small region, but the athletes have a large scale work ethic", said NUC CEO & President David Schuman. "It would be smart to keep an eye on this camp though since we had some good performers in the past and America's next great prospect can come from anywhere."
Current 8th, 9th and 10th graders are slated to compete at 8 am, while Juniors take the field 1 PM on Saturday April 3. All athletes will partake in pro-style combine testing, including the 40-yard dash, broad jump, bench press, vertical leap, and shuttle run along with position specific drills, 1 on 1’s and 3 on 3 competitions.
