Just the number 1 ranked defensive lineman in the state and 6th overall, the all state defensive end returns to Manchester for 2023. Doesn’t take you long to realize why Byerson has FBS and FCS offers from across the country when you watch him play. Last season he was virtually unblockable as a junior, imagine what he is going to do this year? The young man is one of the strongest lineman in the Virginia and is also light on his feet and moves very well. Another two sport athlete for the Lancers, Byerson will be leading the charge as they hope to get back to the state title game for 2023.
