Grabbing the headlines around the north side of Houston is Klein Oak High School athlete DeSean Hales. While Hales makes the Friday Night highlight reels with tremendous runs, linebacker Mark Hunter is anchoring a stingy defense that is the backbone of the Panthers’ success.

Hunter (6-2, 225-pounds) is moving from defensive end to linebacker this season, a brave move for the 2005 district newcomer of the year and 2006 first-team, all-district selection.

“He’s a playmaker,” Klein Oak coach David Smith said. “He’s a Division I guy at linebacker and has good speed.”
