, a talented defensive back and recent transfer to national powerhouse St. Frances Academy (MD), is making noise as he enters a pivotal senior season. The former Loyola Blakefield standout now holds 10 Division I offers, with his recruitment heating up significantly in May , adding six new offers, including Rhode Island and Wofford.
Legree brings a cover corner, high-IQ presence to the secondary. Known for his leadership and consistent play at Loyola, he’ll now have the opportunity to showcase his skills on one of the most competitive stages in high school football. St. Frances’ national-caliber schedule will pit him against elite-level talent weekly, offering plenty of chances to further boost his stock among college scouts.
As he continues to adjust to his new environment and sharpen his technique against top-tier competition, Legree could be poised for another jump in his recruitment. If he replicates the impact he had at Loyola, don’t be surprised to see more FBS programs enter the mix.

Interceptions
Legree made a significant impact this season, earning a spot on the MIAA All-Conference First Team. The dynamic athlete has established himself as one of the most dangerous return men in the MIAA, while also showcasing his ability to excel in coverage. He finished the season with 4 interceptions, 6 pass breakups, and 29 tackles. Despite not receiving many touches on offense, Legree still managed to find the end zone, scoring 6 touchdowns—most of which came from his dominance on special teams as a return specialist.
Legree has a remarkable ability to break on routes with minimal wasted movement, and he consistently makes plays when the ball is in his hands. After an interception, he transitions seamlessly into a dangerous ball carrier, using his elusiveness to weave through defenders. In coverage, he displays quick feet, sharp reaction times, and excellent change-of-direction skills. Additionally, Legree excels at reading screen plays, often recognizing them early enough to beat the blocker to the leverage, making him a formidable presence on the field.
