Interceptions
Hewitt has been a highly regarded recruit since his sophomore year, when he dominated the MIAA on the offensive side of the ball. This season, however, he made his mark predominantly on defense. He finished the year with 3 interceptions, tying for second in the league. While his dominance was undeniable on offense, Hewitt is now bringing that same playmaking ability to the defensive backfield.
With the athleticism, strength, and size to play either cornerback or safety at the next level, as well as receiver, Hewitt’s versatility is evident. After a quieter season as a receiver, he has developed into a key defensive playmaker. As he heads into his senior season, the anticipation is building—who knows what Hewitt has in store next?

Hewitt was a key playmaker for the Cardinals this past season and put some impressive skills on display. He shows breakaway speed, and tough running after the catch, he can be dangerous in open field. He just landed an offer from Michigan State today, adding to his list of 11. Expect to hear about a lot more of this prospect over the next 3 years, his potential is through the roof.
