has come on strong in the second half of the season for the Wildcats and has steadily improved in his new program since the start of the year. He had 8 tackles and an interception in their round one victory over Capital. Hill was physical, coming downhill on underneath passes, while closing on receivers with ferocity. He’s a big, physical defensive back with speed who could be playing himself into some scholarship offers soon.

His 6’2 185 frame plays well on underneath passes and coming downhill in the running game, while also having some success at times in coverage with his length.
