WR JALIN MARSHALL (2013-15)
As a redshirt freshman in 2014, Marshall caught the second-most passes for a freshman in Ohio State history, hauling in 38 receptions for 499 yards and six touchdowns. At the time, the only freshman with more catches in a season was Cris Carter in 1984.

Marshall followed that up by catching 36 passes for 477 yards and five touchdowns in 2015. Although he had two years of eligibility remaining, he opted to enter the NFL draft.

Marshall landed with the New York Jets as an undrafted free agent and caught 14 passes for 162 yards and two touchdowns as an NFL rookie. He has not played in another NFL game since, though he currently plays for the CFL’s Edmonton Elks.

At Middletown, Marshall played quarterback and rushed for a school-record 4,759 yards during his career. As a senior, Marshall ran for over 1,400 yards and 14 touchdowns and also passed for 2,240 yards to lead Middletown to a Greater Miami Conference championship, the school's first in over 20 years.

Marshall also competed in track and field at Middletown and won the 2012 Division I long jump championship with a 23-foot leap.
