Jake Lawler on the mic at South Meck

Posted Nov 4, 2016
Jake Lawler could be spending his Thursday night's elsewhere, but he loves being in the booth. South Mecklenburg's star defensive end is the public address announcer at the school's junior varsity games. "People love it," said Lawler. "You need to think well on your feet." That's something he does on the field. He received about 20 college offers before choosing North Carolina. (WCNC.com)
