MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Around age 6, Dravon Askew became Dravon Henry to honor the step-father who stepped in and taught him so much.
As a sophomore free safety at West Virginia, the name on back of his No. 6 jersey will read Askew-Henry, a reminder how much he loves Mom, too.
“I really wanted to represent both their names,” Kid Hypen explained Tuesday, “and, yeah, she was pretty excited.”
His coaches are pretty excited over what Askew-Henry can produce in Year 2, considering how he surfaced on freshman All-America teams despite being uncertain about his responsibilities many weeks.
