SALISBURY, North Carolina -- Anybody who has been around Jalen Hendricks knows that he is not going to be the most talkative person in the room.
What the Livingstone College wide receiver is doing on the football field Saturday afternoons this fall says enough.
Hendricks, a 6-foot-1, 200-pound junior and 2012 graduate of Nash Central High, has turned into one of the better receivers in all of Division II football.
Hendricks is second in the nation in every notable statistical category for receivers, including 10 touchdown receptions.
After each of those touchdowns this season, in a manner that befits his personality, Hendricks simply hands the ball back the referee as his teammates do more of the celebrating.
“He has always been like that,” Hendricks’ father, Steve, said. “He’s so quiet.”
Hendricks certainly is drawing the attention of other CIAA teams with the numbers he has put up through five games for Livingstone (4-1, 1-1 CIAA).
