NAME:
Jeremy Rogers
HEIGHT:
5’8”
WEIGHT:
170 pounds
GRADE:
Senior
SCHOOL:
South Lafourche High School
SPORTS PLAYED:
Jeremy is a multi-sport standout for the Tarpons. He is an elite linebacker for the school’s football team and he is also a solid field performer for track and field events. Jeremy is one of the most aggressive defensive playmakers in the area. He also figures to play some halfback, as well in 2017.
STATS:
Jeremy was one of the leading tacklers for the Tarpons last season, but he also made plays in special teams and offensively, blocking kicks and doing different things to help his team win games.
GOALS:
“We want to make it to the playoffs and do everything that we can to have as successful of a season as possible in my last year.”
WORKING ON:
Strength, mass and quickness
STRENGTHS:
Aggressiveness, awareness, game-changing ability
CREDENTIALS:
On Friday nights in the fall, if you locate the football, you probably also have found Jeremy Rogers. The Tarpons linebacker is undersized, standing just 5-feet, 8-inches, but he makes up for that lack of size with an ability to always get to where the action is and make big plays. Rogers is also a running back in the South Lafourche offense – one of the top two-ways players in the Houma-Thibodaux area.
