Grabski missed part of the 2012 season with injury but was selected to play in the 21st Brad Park Memorial PAL All-Star Game. He had acclaimed sophomore and junior seasons and also participated in track and field. Grabski was his team’s Defensive Most Valuable Player, Special Teams Most Valuable Player and first-team all-Manatee County. As a sophomore, he earned second team all-Area honors.

After having recruited Southeast for the past 20 years, Petrino knew he would find the talent he needed there and Grabski is no exception.

“Jordan has great speed,” Petrino said. “He runs on their 4x100 relay and anyone who runs on the 4x100 at Southeast has to be fast.”

That’s not all. “He’ll hit you. He plays the ball real well and he has great skills.”
