Zellner sure about four visits

One of the fastest rising prospects in the state of Florida is Sarasota Booker athlete/tight end Chris Zellner, and things couldn’t have been going any better during his senior season. He’s picking up scholarship offers from all over the nation and his team is a perfect 8-0 on the season.
“It has been kind of a dream season,” Zellner, who is 6-foot-2 and 230 pounds, said. “I guess all of my hard work is paying off. This is why I put all those long hours in working out and running hard. It was worth it.”

No doubt.
Zellner has caught three touchdown passes this season and has done his job to help Booker remain perfect this season. The final two games of his season are expected to be relatively easy and there is hope that Booker will be 10-0 heading into the first week of the state playoffs.
“We can’t let up, though,” he said. “I know we’re going to get every team’s best shot, especially since the two teams we play aren’t going to get into the playoffs.”
Zellner does have post-playoff plans. He said he knows he will take official visits to Ohio State, Maryland, Georgia Tech and Pittsburgh for sure. He said South Florida is a candidate for a fifth official visit, but he’s not sure about that yet.
“I’m working with my coach on setting up my dates this week,” Zellner said. “But my top four are Ohio State, Maryland, Georgia Tech and Pittsburgh. They have all offered me.”
