In The Recruiting Huddle: Javier Zuniga - Doral Academy
PLAYER: Javier Zuniga
POSITION: RB
SCHOOL: Doral Academy
CLASS: 2017
HEIGHT: 5-10
WEIGHT: 175
SCOUTING: After leaving Booker T. Washington two years ago, this tremendous runner went on and not only led Miami Sunset to a rare district football title, but he also ended up leading Miami-Dade County large schools in rushing. Zuniga is a gifted runner who has speed and toughness. He is the kind of back who doesn't go down on the first hit. While college interest is coming in slow, this will be the season where he can put everything on the table. His ability to hit the holes and even catch out of the backfield when needed will also enhance his overall recruiting package. He'll be put to the test many times this year - as he will be a huge addition to first-year head coach Jase Stewart and the Doral Academy Firebirds. College coaches who have watched him play believe that while he still things to work on, schools will start watching him a lot closer this season. Zuniga is a very good all-around prospect.
