Jeremiah Smith continues to defend his title as the No. 1 wide receiver in the 2024 recruiting class.
The five-star Ohio State commit had another dominant performance on Thursday, leading No. 3 Chaminade-Madonna (Hollywood, Florida) to a 31-28 win over No. 6 Miami Central (Miami, Florida) with a nine-catch, 114-yard, two-touchdown performance. One of those touchdowns required a remarkable one-handed catch, which went viral on social media.
