They are the best of the best.

They succeed.

They stand out.

They dominate.

On the field, they excel with equal parts skill and size and speed. Off the field, their personalities are varied, but linked by a common passion and goal.

Bright House Sports Network goes inside the helmet with the best prep players in our coverage area (Citrus, Hernando, Hillsborough, Manatee, Pasco, Pinellas and Polk counties). Watch their videos with our daily Top 25 countdown to learn why these players stand out, why they succeed, why they dominate and why they are the best.

The countdown continues with No. 20.

No. 20 Keldric Preston

Robinson High School

Position: DE

Class: 2016

Fun Fact: Put a pizza in front of him, Preston will devour it. Put cabbage in front of him, not so much.

“I can’t stand vegetables,” Preston said.

As for the best thing he can cook for himself, Preston said it’s a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal. Not sure if that counts as cooking, but we’ll give it to him.”
