5-star Mayes: ‘I’m excited to start my next chapter as a Tiger’
Clemson offensive line commit Mitchell Mayes is getting ready to play in his final high school game before he moves on to start his career as a Tiger next month.
Mayes (6-4, 315), rated as a five-star prospect by ESPN, is a senior at Leesville Road High School in Raleigh, North Carolina, and helped his team make it to their first ever state title game.
Leesville Road will play Zebulon B. Vance (Charlotte) for the Class 4AA state championship on Saturday at UNC’s Kenan Stadium.
“Extremely excited,” Mayes told The Clemson Insider. “Unfortunately it will be my last time playing high school ball but it is so sweet to play in a state championship game.”
