Crofton's Lemon Makes His Case at NFL Combine

The former Arundel wide receiver was among the top performers in the 20-yard shuttle run.

Former Arundel High wide receiver Alec Lemon made his case to NFL scouts over the weekend, performing well in a series of drills to test speed, agility and strength. 

Lemon placed 15th among all wide receivers in the 20-yard shuttle run, finishing the drill in 4.29 seconds. Analysts also said his 40-yard dash time of 4.59 seconds was fast enough for NFL consideration. 

Lemon is expected to be a draft in April in the middle-to-late rounds. He set many state records while at Arundel and recently completed a strong career at Syracuse University.
