Hopefully, everyone has seen Mason Parris going full beast mode this past weekend at FloNationals by now. But some folks may still not know that the 220-pound high school junior is also a stud on the football field, terrorizing offensive backs across the state of Indiana. 

You can check out Parris' gridiron skills in the video below, as the middle linebacker uses his brute strength and incredible closing speed to blow up his opponents from sideline to sideline.


Given his rare combination of size, speed, and explosiveness, it's no surprise that Division I football coaches have already been knocking on Parris' door. Any wrestling teams hoping to add Parris to its roster will have to contend with the football programs of Purdue, Cincinnati, and Ball State, all of whom have reportedly offered the Lawrenceville, IN, native a scholarship. 

Parris is three-star football recruit according to 247sports.com and is currently ranked 13th in the state of Indiana for the class of 2018 and 28th among inside linebackers from across the nation.

Wrestling fans are, of course, all hoping he plies his athleticism on the mats in college, so we can see more displays of his wrestling prowess. One such example was in the FloNationals finals on Saturday when Parris dismantled Super 32 and Pennsylvania State champ Brian Kennerly. If you somehow missed that match, do yourself a favor and watch it now.


You can listen to Parris discuss his future in the interview below, captured when we caught up with the dual-sport all star after his finals victory. 


Also, just in case you missed it, Parris mentioned he is an all-conference shot-putter and hurdler for his track and field team. The future is looking bright for Parris in whatever endeavor he chooses to pursue.
