Big Junior Season for Solomon

Hemingway, SC 2012 athlete Jabril Solomon is in the midst of a great junior campaign.  The Tigers find themselves 8-0 thanks in large part to Solomon's play on both sides of the ball. Up to this point, Solomon has 30 catches (team has only completed 68 passes total) for 644 yards (21.46 avg), 10 receiving touchdowns, and 5 interceptions.

Solomon had his best game to date last week versus cross-town rival Johnsonville. Check this stat line... 3 receiving touchdowns and 3 interceptions, with one returned for another touchdown.

Solomon gets credits for style points, too, with acrobatic catches becoming the norm on a weekly basis. This Hemingway team is very fun to watch and has one of the best defenses in the state, having only given up 20 points the entire season (five shutouts).

As a prospect, Solomon is obviously versatile, but at this point I like him a little more as a safety. He's long, has excellent ball skills, and isn't afraid of contact.
