He led Jordan to a 12-1-1 record and a Class 5A state title, proving to be the next great player to emerge from the Kafentzis family.
“Football is my main sport. I love it. It’s in my blood,” he said.
In two seasons, Kafentzis has thrown for a total of 6,206 yards and 55 touchdowns, while rushing for 3,261 yards and 48 scores. His yards total, 9,467, would be impressive if his career had already ended.
At that rate, Kafentzis will approach 19,000 total yards, something only two other players have done: brothers Ben and Maty Mauk from Kenton (Ohio).
Kafentzis has already accomplished a great deal in his young career:
* MaxPreps National Freshman of the Year in 2011
*
MaxPreps National Sophomore of the Year in 2012
* 2012 Utah Mr. Football
* 9,467 total yards
