The Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl jersey presentation is the highlight of an otherwise frustrating year for Smith, who suffered a high ankle sprain early and has battled back most of the season. Hes rushed for 421 yards and four touchdowns.
But when healthy, as is the case right now, Smith brings an intangible few teams have.
Laray brings an aspect to us thats very important and its something that not every high school team has and thats he can score from anywhere at any time, DeSiena said. Hes a home run hitter.
Its a reason why Smith is one of the most highly touted unsigned seniors in New York City. Hes got official visits lined up at Syracuse (Dec. 8) and Tennessee (Dec. 15) and has track scholarship offers from Ole Miss and Illinois.
Smith is still very much undecided in terms of his future, but he said hed like to play football and run track.
