One of the best defensive backs around in the Class of 2024 is Withrow
High School's Terhyon Nichols, a top high school football recruit, who
had numerous collegiate offers before committing to play at the
University of Kentucky.
Terhyon entered his senior season having wrapped up a highly decorated
junior campaign when he registered 59 tackles (46 of them solo
tackles) and three forced fumbles, helping Withrow to a CMAC Red
championship with a 5-0 undefeated record in league play. He was named
first-team all-CMAC, first-team all-city Div. II (Enquirer),
first-team all-Southwest Ohio District and first-team all-Ohio in Div.
II. He was a finalist for Cincinnati Sports Awards' Defensive Player
of the Year, and was selected to participate in the Under Armour Next
Football Camp series in Columbus. He was a second-team all-CMAC
selection as a sophomore.
In this, his senior season, he had a memorable moment in a game vs.
St. Xavier when he took the opening kickoff of the second half and ran
it back 96 yards for a touchdown! He also had four tackles in the
game. Through the first six games, Terhyon has 25 tackles, three
interceptions and a fumble recovery.
A CMAC scholar-athlete, Terhyon also plays basketball and runs track
for the Tigers. His junior year, he set a school record in the 100
dash. He was CMAC champion in the 100 and finished fourth in the
region in that event. He was named first-team all-conference in track
& field.
His favorite athlete is Ahmad "Sauce" Gardner, favorite entertainer
and most-like-to-meet is Oliver Davis the 3rd, favorite book is Public
School Hero and favorite movie is Jumper.
COACH'S QUOTE – "Tehryon is the picture of the model
student-athlete. His relentless pursuit of excellence in the classroom
carries over to his approach to everything he does, including
athletics. He carries a 4.55 GPA while performing at an all-state
level in both track and football. His drive for success is unique and
admirable; he will have a very promising future!"
— Kali Jones, Varsity Football Coach
