Winton Woods has a mighty football talent in edge rusher Justin Hill,
a senior who next season will take his game to the University of
Alabama.
A top recruit, Justin last year helped lead one of the best defenses
in the state. He had an ECC-leading 13 sacks to help the Warriors to
an 8-4 record. He also recorded 34 tackles, with 15 tackles for loss
and two forced fumbles. For his sterling play, he was named ECC
Defensive Player of the Year, Southwest Ohio Div. II Defensive Player
of the Year, Cincinnati Div. II Defensive Player of the Year
(Enquirer) and first-team all-state in Div. II.
The Warriors moved up to Div. I this season. In the season-opener,
Winton Woods beat Springfield, winners of three straight Div. I
runner-up titles, and Justin Hill scored a touchdown on a blocked
punt. Justin was named to the preseason all-Ohio team by the USA Today
Network.
A good student who is active in community service, Justin also played
a year of baseball for the Warriors in 2022. His favorite athlete is
LeBron James, favorite entertainer is Druski, favorite book is The
Bible, favorite movie is Love Don't Cost a Thing and most-like-to-meet
is NBA YoungBoy.
COACH'S QUOTE
–
“Justin is blessed with many things, but it is his character
that separates him from the pack. He is a PHENOMENAL human that not
only works to make himself better, but the people around him.”
—Chad Murphy, Varsity Football Coach
