D’Andre Swift is coming home. Before he rose to prominence at the University of Georgia, and made a name for himself in the NFL, the running back was a standout on the Enon Eagles in Mount Airy. Read EJSmith94's 2020 profile of the newest Eagle.
Long before Swift was a fashion-forward Division I recruit with the Prep, he was a standout on the Enon Eagles in Mount Airy. As he ascended through the ranks of the youth football league, Swift led his team to a league championship.
By the time Swift left the Prep, he was a three-time state champion with 4,112 career rushing yards. In his senior season, he ran for 1,564 yards and 25 touchdowns to go with nine receiving scores, leading the Hawks to a 14-0 season that included a state title.After winning that final championship, Swift did something else no Prep player had ever done before: He gave Infante a Gatorade bath. The proof is still the coach’s computer desktop background.
“It’s probably one of the greatest runs I’ve ever seen anybody at the high school level have in the last 25 years.” Thomas liked Swift’s 60-yard score in 2018 because the coach’s film showed him and Kindley chest-bumping as Swift hurled toward the end zone. “We used to call it the stanky leg,” Sugden said. “Where he sticks that foot in the ground and breaks off the other way, stopping on a dime.”When Swift took the podium at the NFL scouting combine, he was peppered with questions ranging from which teams he’d met with to what getting drafted will mean to him.
