Texas Longhorns QB commit KJ Lacey followed up his excellent Day 1 at the Elite 11 Finals with another impressive performance on Day 2.
As is the case every year at the competition, the second day of the Elite 11 Finals is under a particularly intense microscope, with the day highlighted by the Pro Day and accuracy challenge events - both challenges that play a major factor in deciding the camp MVP.Lacey got off to a bit of a slow start on Wednesday but ultimately ended up placing well in his first run at the accuracy challenge.
The accuracy challenge in particular fit to Lacey's strengths as a distributor, and doesn't emphasize a good deal of arm strength for many of the throws. However, he also had arguably the best throw of the day of any QB in the camp during the drill on a longball across the width of the field.Lacey then took that momentum into the Pro Day portion of the event, where he once again put up an impressive showing.
During the drill, Lacey was accurate and his footwork was on full display, throwing easy-to-catch and well-timed balls throughout the duration. Lacey ended with a score of 44, placing him just outside the top five of the group.Now, with two impressive days behind him, Lacey will go into Day 3 hoping to make a real impression and make a push for the Elite 11 Finals MVP award.
And while that may be a tough hill to climb given the other talent ahead of him in the rankings as it stands, Lacey has proven thus far that he is fully capable of making some noise and making a push for the title in the very least.Matt Galatzan is the Publisher of LonghornsCountry.com, AllAggies.com, and the Managing Editor of BuckeyesNow.com and TheGroveReport.com He is also the Editor-In-Chief of RamDigest.com and TexansDaily.com.
