This probably isn’t a name most people in the Charlotte area know well, as he played last season for Alexander Central High School. Maurice joins a talented West Iredell team as a real playmaker on both sides of the ball. I considered him for the ATH category, but ultimately, I think his defense is what really stands out. Last season, as a defensive safety/nickel, Maurice had 60 tackles, double-digit pass breakups, and 2 defensive touchdowns. And this was his first year playing the position – very impressive. I like the way Maurice tackles in the open field, and his taking of excellent pursuit angles allows him to get to the football all over the field on defense.
