Biography:
Speedy yet shifty receiver, plenty of schools covet McPhearson's ability to get behind the defensive backs for the deep balls. He had good hands, and a knowledge to beat corners playing on the line for an easy opening. McPhearson would like to play baseball, in addition to football, in college.

Final SR (12-0) stats: 41 rec/1020 yds/13 TDs; 2 KRs for TDs; 25 tackles/3 picks
