MOCKSVILLE, NC – Ra Ra Dillworth is one 17 prospects in the class of 2021 committed to play football at North Carolina, and he’s also been a regular subject here on THI.
Dillworth hasn’t been shy about attending as many open skills camps as he can, especially since there’s no fall high school football season for public schools in the state. Dillworth loves to compete, as he’s told THI and we’ve witnessed, and he was at it again Sunday at the VTO Sports High School Football Regional Showcase at Davie County Stadium.
Dillworth is a 4-star outside linebacker who attends Glenn High School in Kernersville, NC. He’s the No. 93 overall prospect in the nation, including No. 4 at his position, and he’s the No. 6 overall prospect in talent-rich North Carolina. Dillworth committed to UNC on April 17.
THI caught up with Dillworth to get the latest as he’s just a few months from enrolling at UNC:
