Baylin Trujillo Impacts QBs Nationally

In this article:
FORT LAUDERDALE – It’s a little after 9 a.m. on a Saturday in south Florida.
As the summer heat begins to build at Holiday Park, there are several quarterback hopefuls looking to improve their game and keep themselves in the spotlight.
At the center of this workout is Baylin Trujillo. Over the past five years, there are few quarterback coaches who have made the impact that this one-time University of South Florida and Webber International University has, parlaying his knowledge and hard work into a reputation that is becoming nationally known.
Based in the central Florida area, Trujillo has expanded his reach to several areas of Florida as well as many places around the country. While some attend his weekly workouts – others take part in his events, competing against some of the best this country has to offer.
With so many quarterback coaches doing their thing in Florida and throughout the nation, Trujillo has been able to elevate prospects while having the ear of colleges and universities around the country.
On this weekend, he was in the area to attend the University of Miami “Legends” event and support his top prospect,

While at Holiday Park, Trujillo had an opportunity to work with some quality talent, which included Preston Wright (Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna standout, who will attend Wingate University) and Brand Campbell (Palm Beach Gardens, who is currently at Wabash College).
Also on hand were Christian Askew (Bradenton IMG Academy 7th grader), Altamonte Springs Lake Brantley freshman Grace Nguyen, who started for Orlando Bishop Moore High’s flag football team as a freshman), and gifted fifth grader Mason Wright.
The session also attracted Class of 2026 players
