MILAM’S HOMEGROWN ATHLETE OF THE WEEK
HERB WATERS • HOMESTEAD, FLA. • WIDE RECEIVER
“The last time Herb Waters faced the Duke Blue Devils, the Homestead, Fla., native was practically a human highlight reel.
“Waters had a career-high nine catches for 116 yards and two touchdowns in last year’s game at Wallace Wade Stadium. Then a sophomore, Waters tallied just his second career 100-yard receiving game against a talented Blue Devils defense.
“But making big plays has always come naturally to Waters.
“A year ago, he made the crowd at Sun Life Stadium roar after a touchdown in Miami’s 21-16 win over the rival Florida Gators. He also totaled 112 all-purpose yards on two receptions and one carry in the 2013 season opener against FAU. His 63-yard touchdown run against the Owls was a career-best.”
