Senior football wide receiver Tevaliance Hunt has been entered into the contest to play in the Under Armour All-America Game on Saturday, Jan. 2 at the Orlando Citrus Bowl. The event will be televised live on ESPN-2 at noon ET and is sponsored by American Family Insurance and Intersport. For the first time ever, the players will be determined by an online voting contest by the public.

“Football players from around the nation gather to play football on two different teams,” Hunt said. “It is a several day event, and we do camps and training at first and actual games later on.”

The #DreamFearlessly Fan Vote features players and their highlights from eight regions of the U.S. It is a rigorous content to be accepted into, and the voting process is steep.

“It feels good to be in [the contest] because not many people get to do so,” Hunt said. “The moderator of the game texted me personally after watching highlights and said that I was going to be entered into the contest, so I was
excited.”

Hunt has committed to playing for Texas Christian University and aspires to play professional football for the Atlanta Falcons.

“[By playing this game,] I get exposure to the public and a great experience, and I encourage everyone to rally behind me and vote for me,” Hunt said.

Hunt has succeeded to the third round of voting and he needs your support. Go to  http://dreamfearlessly.underarmourgame.com and vote. Voting is restricted to once everyday.
