He caught 12 TD passes in his career and ranked fourth on Findlay’s all-time list in that category.
HIGH SCHOOL COACH MARK RITZLER SAID: "Joe is a long and tall, versatile athlete. You don’t see 6-foot-7 corners, but he had the hips, flexibility and speed to cover the opponent’s best receiver. In the red zone, he was a nightmare for opponents with the fade."
