Lowndes County quarterback Jacurri Brown said he’s a little familiar with the AJC’s Super 11. His school celebrated the selection of 2011 Super 11 class member Josh Harvey-Clemons. “Football is life. To be selected as one of the best top football players, all-around, that’s a good feeling right there,” said Brown. (Tyson Alan Horne / Tyson.Horne@ajc.com)

A four-year starter, Ware County quarterback Thomas Castellanos has passed for 5,097 yards and rushed for 2,713 yards in his career.

Jake, who is selected in the 2021 class of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Super 11, is the No. 7 senior prospect at any position and the No. 1 TE prospect nationally, according to 247Sports.

It’s a blessing,” said Williams, who is the school’s first Super 11 selectee. (Tyson Alan Horne / Tyson.Horne@ajc.com)
