He was one of the best high school football players in the state, and is considered by pro scouts to be one of the best prep baseball players in the country. He is the point guard on the Cascade basketball team. All of this while maintaining a 3.8 grade-point average in the classroom. Just keep the golf clubs out of his hands. Everyone has a weakness.
Golf is the killer.
The statistics Sizemore posted during 1999 are borderline ridiculous. As a running back for the Cascade football team last fall, Sizemore gained 1,200 yards and 20 touchdowns and averaged nearly 12 yards per rush. He also set a school record with eight interceptions, and compiled 79 tackles as a free safety. But more than that, he's just a great kid. After an impressive junior season in baseball last spring, Sizemore grabbed the attention of baseball coaches everywhere during the summer while playing Senior American Legion ball.
