with Johnathan Aiken
Chaminade-Madonna defensive back Johnathan Aiken has been turning heads as a member of the vaunted South Florida Express team that competes in 7-on-7 tournaments during the spring. Chaminade-Madonna head coach Tim Tyrell, who played for Jim Tressel at Youngstown State, has called Aiken the heart and soul of his team. Coach Tyrell has also noted that Aiken seems like a good fit for the Big 10 beacuse of his physcial style of play...something the OSU coaches will get a good look at when Aiken works out for the OSU staff this summer (he was named a defensive MVP at OSU's camp last summer). A recent junior day visit to South Florida netted Aiken an offer. The BPRT was able to slow him down long enough to throw a Straight Six his way...
