OBU's Shockley calls Natural State Elite Camp the Walmart of camps

Ouachita Baptist University offensive line coach and recruiting coordinator Brett Shockley is a big proponent of the Natural State Elite Camp.

This year’s version was held at Cliff Harris Stadium on the OBU campus in Arkadelphia and featured more than 300 athletes.

Shockley, a Conway native who played on the offensive line at Arkansas, recalls a handful of camps being available to high school athletes about 20 years ago.

“Now these kids are going to camps for 10-15 straight days,” he said.

The Natural State Elite Camp can eliminate the need for prospects to travel the state to attend camps.
