This was another amazing year for the Parisi NFL Combine Program.  This year, we had a smaller group than in years past which really put the pressure on the Parisi Team to produce and prove that it is still one of, if not the top NFL Combine prep program in the country. 

Our 12 athletes represented and came back with a number of individual titles and top placings according to the "official" results on the NFL.com site.  Here is a comprehensive list so far of the results from the group.

10 of 12 of our athletes placed top 4 or higher at their position in one or more events! All 12 placed top 6 or higher in one or more events! Very impressive for only having 12 athletes out of 350!

This was an amazing year and we thank the athletes for their dedication and follow through. We now look forward to the draft in late April and a chance to see how our athletes improved their stock!
