Leatham commits to National Underclassmen Combine All-World Game!

For Immediate Release

Mahwah, NJ (September 14, 2010) - Standout QB Garrett Leatham of Apex, NC  will participate in the National Underclassmen Combine's All World Game.

The 6'5 210 lb pro-style QB was amongst the NUC's best players from 2010, winning QB MVP at both the Durham Combine and Ultimate 100 Camp. He then shined at the exclusive Top Prospect Camp, once taking home QB MVP en route to being rated the number one player at his position amongst rising seniors. Leatham, who has interest from various D1 schools,  is also regarded as one of the nation's top sleeper prospects.

"Garrett did everything imaginable at this year's combines and there is a reason he was the number one junior QB at the Top Prospect Camp," said NUC CEO & President David Schuman. "He has a great attitude, tremendous arm, good footwork and an excellent football IQ. Whoever gets him to sign will be extremely lucky and have a winner from the get go".

The NUC All-World Gridiron Classic will showcase 114 elite high school seniors from all across the globe in a unique All-Star Game. Players from the two squads, Team NUC & Team World, will be drafted from the ground up by the coaching staff to ensure a level playing field.

There will also be a full week of events leading up to game day for select All-World Underclassmen including 7 on 7's, linemen challenges and a combine.

The NUC All-World Gridiron Classic kicks off from Columbia, SC at The Citadel's Johnson Hagood Stadium Friday, December 31, 2010 at 6 pm ET. Broadcast and ticket information will be announced shortly.

Since their inception in 2005, the National Underclassmen Combine guided more than 50,000 athletes from all walks of life. 70 percent of the NUC's alumni went on to play in college, with 20 percent earning D1 or D1AA scholarships.
