2023 6’5 230 DL – Nnamdi Udeogu Nnamdi Udeogu 6'5" | 230 lbs | DL Georgetown Prep | 2023 State MD – Georgetown Prep – Princeton University
Princeton Tiger’s commit Nnamdi Udeogu Nnamdi Udeogu 6'5" | 230 lbs | DL Georgetown Prep | 2023 State MD will graduate in 2023 as one of the top athletes in Maryland, and he will compete in both football and track and field during his time in New Jersey. Udeogu is also the #1 ranked discus thrower in all of Maryland. His athletic prowess is off the charts, and he truly has the opportunity to achieve greatness at Princeton. Nnamdi Udeogu Nnamdi Udeogu 6'5" | 230 lbs | DL Georgetown Prep | 2023 State MD was an integral part of Georgetown Prep’s phenomenal season in 2022, and there’s no doubt in my mind that he will bring that same leadership and energy to the Ivey League. It will be very exciting to watch Nnamdi Udeogu Nnamdi Udeogu 6'5" | 230 lbs | DL Georgetown Prep | 2023 State MD compete at the next level, and Princeton Tiger nation should be absolutely ecstatic with his commitment!
2023 6’3 185 DB/LB – Christopher Wells Christopher Wells 6'3" | 185 lbs | DB Landon | 2023 State MD – Landon
The 1st Team All-IAC linebacker, Chris “The General” Wells, played at an elite level all year for the Landon Bears in 2022. Wells racked up 136 total tackles this season, along with 14 sacks and 4 forced fumbles, and he also led the defense in touchdowns with 2. Wells is a phenomenal defender, and he reads offenses better than most players at this level. He has really high level anticipation, which helps with his tackle count, and he also defends very well in coverage. There isn’t much that Chris Wells cannot do, and he should absolutely see more offers. He already has a few from Wheeling and West Virginia State, but, after such a strong season, it would surprise me if more scouts don’t reach out to him. He possesses a high ceiling, and, with proper development, I believe he can make an impact at the D1 level.

Trinity College commit Nicholas Behrens played a tremendous season in 2022. He led the Georgetown Prep Little Hoyas to a dominant 8-2 record, and he even earned 1st Team All-IAC honors as a specialist. There’s zero doubt in my mind that Behrens will make a positive impact on the Trinity program during his time there, and his greatness at Georgetown Prep will absolutely extend to the next level. Banshee nation should be very excited about his commitment!
