This past weekend the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill became the epicenter of a dynamic 7‑on‑7 football camp that brought together some of the most promising high school programs from across the Southeast. Teams representing North Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Maryland converged on the Tar Heel campus to test their skills in a fast‑paced, passing‑only format that emphasizes route running, coverage schemes and quarterback decision‑making.
A Gathering of Talent
The event, organized by the UNC‑Chapel Hill football program, attracted a diverse mix of squads, but it was the North Carolina contingent that dominated the headlines. Schools such as Hough, Reidsville, Southeast Raleigh and Mooresville sent their standout athletes, each hoping to catch the eye of college recruiters and regional scouts.
