Harlem Berry

Personal Life

St Martin's Episcopal School coach Marcus Dizer isn't shy about heaping on the praise for Harlem Berry. "In all my years, I have never coached or seen a better player than Harlem," Dizer said. Through his first two seasons of varsity football, Berry had 4,723 all-purpose yards and 67 touchdowns. He also won the Louisiana 1A state titles in the 100 (10.57) and 200-meters (21.43) during his sophomore year. As a sophomore, Berry rushed 193 times for 2,237 yards (11.6 yards per carry) and 37 touchdowns. During his junior season, he was named the Greater New Orleans Quarterback Club player of the month in September after rushing for 805 yards and 16 scores – in just four games. "He's brilliant," Dizer said. "We do not win games without him."
