Center Grove's Curry drawing a lot of attention

Take a quick look at Center Grove junior Caden Curry, and it’s easy to see why colleges are recruiting him hard. At 6-foot-5-inches and 250 pounds, Curry has the size to play at the next level. Turn on the film, and it becomes a different story and you definitely get a feeling for why close to 13 teams have offered one of the Midwest’s top underclassmen. “I’ve been playing football all my life since the beginning,” Curry recently told Sideline Prep Sports Report. A season ago, Curry was the leader of the Center Grove defense and helped guide the Trojans to a Class 6A runner-up spot. He was named the Metropolitan Interscholastic Conference Defensive Player-of-the-Year, notching 100 tackles, 26.5 tackles for a loss and 10.5 sacks. And, he did all those things as a sophomore. “I feel as if I am a top recruit and I need to work as hard as being one. It’s definitely been surprising about my success, but I have great coaches and peers to help me work to be the best,” Curry said. Curry enters his junior season with goals of helping lead Center Grove to its first state title since 2015. “My goals are to be the best player on the field and help my team win a championship,” Curry said. Thus far, Curry has offers from the likes of Wisconsin, Iowa, Michigan state, Minnesota, Purdue, Arizona State, Boston College, Kansas State, Missouri, West Virginia, Indiana, Ohio State and Alabama. He tells Sideline Prep Sports Report his favorites are currently Ohio State, Indiana and Alabama. “I look for people who will push me to be the best I can be and gain an education at a school that has all my needs and facilities to help me,” Curry said.
