He was physically impressive two years ago as a member of the Kentucky Future Stars, and following a reclass year he looks even better. At 6-foot and 185-muscular-pounds, Wright had a strong year at both Running Back and Linebacker for the Panthers during their 2024 KYMSFA 8th Grade Division 3 State Championship run. For his contributions, he was a KYMSFA Division 3 Honorable Mention Regional POY Nominee this season.

, a linebacker at Pikeville High School. Wright stands out with his well-balanced playstyle and defensive awareness, proving he can read the quick handoff and make commanding stops in the pocket.
