Wolverines’ DB Kahleef Jimmison flourishes is first season at Woodside
by Brandon Mitchell, recruit757The cornerstone of the Wolverines program is that of the Wing-T. It’s a formation that when executed correctly can run even the most stout defense off the field. It’s an offense that requires depth at running back and along the offensive linwe. Also, it would help to possess an offensive line that is more agile than most. Over the years, Woodside has possessed just that. In the same breath, with respect to the offensive side of the ball, the defense for the Wolverines is a unit that has deserved much admiration especially in the last three seasons.
The Woodside defense has allowed just 12 points per contest holding 20 opponents to 10 points or less and shutting out seven opponents in 36 total contests. Last season prospects such as D’Artanyon Davis, Carrington Bowden, Kysien Daniels, and Andrew Chamblee among others made a considerable difference on the Wolverines defense. However, the acquisition of starting defensive back Kahleef Jimmison from Hampton Roads Academy didn’t show up in conversations among the Peninsula District elite as much as it should’ve.
Jimmison (2020 DB/RB 5-9 161) left HRA before the start of his junior season where he provided maturity and security at the quarterback position. The Woodside product completed 80-of-184 passes for 1,376 yards and 13 touchdowns during his sophomore season. He also provided support via the ground game rushing for 1,027 yards on 168 carries and 14 touchdowns.
Through eight games Jimmison was able to secure four interceptions while also doubling down on the offensive side of the ball. This past Saturday the Woodside defensive back joined 100 prospects at the Inova Sports Performance Center at Redskins Park to compete in the reruit757/Sparta Science Elite Showcase. He split some of his time with recruit757 where he shared his expectations on the day and why basketball has also helped propel his athleticism.
