South Fayette's Justin Watson making a name for himself in NFL draft circles

All-American Penn receiver Justin Watson set a record that will never be broken last season. He was the first and only receiver in the long and storied history of the Ivy League to catch a pass in every game of his college career, 40 of them altogether since arriving on campus after graduating from South Fayette High in 2014. While completing that feat he also became the only player in Ivy League history to catch a touchdown pass in every game of a single season, 14 combined in 10 games for the Quakers last fall. Overall, Watson set Penn records for receptions (286), receiving yards (3,777), receiving touchdowns (33) and all-purpose yards (4,116).
