Travis Hughes and Demetrious Nicholson have UNC in top-5

Posted Oct 19, 2010
Bayside’s Demetrious Nicholson and Kempsville’s Travis Hughes battled each other last Saturday when the Marlins beat the Chiefs 42-6. But don’t be surprised if both end up as teammates in college. They have the three same schools in their final five. Nicholson, rated the No. 4 cornerback nationally by Rivals, has narrowed his list to Stanford, Virginia, UNC, West Virginia and Clemson. Hughes, rated the No. 7 inside linebacker nationally by Rivals, has Virginia, Maryland, UNC Clemson and Virginia Tech as his final choices. (Virginian-Pilot)
