A true dual-threat quarterback, Kemp led his Nighthawks' team to the 6A semifinals (a game they lost after eventual champion Watauga connected on a game-winning two-point conversion in a shootout) and was honored as the TAAC Six 5A/6A Player of the Year. He's improved his accuracy and has a repeatable throwing motion that suggests there may be more untapped potential there.

Evaluations are normally subscriber-only but when an athlete subscribes, theirs becomes free for all readers. Subscribing doesn't change who the Scout covers, it changes who gets to see it.
