Our first weekend of SKLZ Speed Challenges brought us to Rock Hill, South Carolina, where a few athletes competing in our Football City Clash tournament blew us away with their 40 speed.

Keyvon is currently #1 on our national Speed Challenge leaderboard with a jaw-dropping 4.32 40. Reminder folks, this is a laser-timed 40 so Keyvon's speed is legit!
The 5'9 Gibsonville, NC product will be one to watch as he enters his junior season.

4.36... not bad for a freshman!
Fabricius, the RB/ATH out of Mount Pleasant ran a scorching 4.36 40 this weekend.
Jackson was already seeing some reps with the MPHS varsity squad this year, and will no doubt be a name to know as he continues to develop.
A 4.0 student with 4.4 speed!
Johnson finished 3rd in our speed testing at Football City Clash this weekend with a blazing 4.40 time.
The 6' Sophomore was a playmaker for the Eagles on defense this season with 54 tackles, including 4 for loss, 7 pass break-ups and 1 forced fumble.
With his combination of size and speed, he has top-end upside as he heads into his junior season.

It's not every day you see an 8th grader running a 4.42, but we got the chance to do just that this weekend.
Ethan Childs stepped up and smoked this 40-time this weekend, good enough for 4th best from the SKLZ Speed Challenge at Football City Clash and tied for 5th on the national leaderboard.
Ethan has officially added himself to our watchlist with that time.
