The illustrious football program at Wyoming High School (740 wins in

them scored more points in a single season than did senior running back
C.J. Hester.
Last season as a junior, C.J. accounted for a total of 278 points in
rushing, receiving, punt returns and two-point conversions for the
Cowboys. Wyoming went 10-0 in league play, undefeated in the CHL for the
sixth straight season and won their 37th conference title overall. The
Cowboys are currently on a 59-game regular-season winning streak, the
longest winning streak in Ohio in all football divisions. The Cowboys
are the winningest program all-time in Ohio history with a 78% winning
percentage.
His junior year, C.J. rushed for a league-leading 2,428 yards (35 TDs)
with 178 yards receiving (four TDs). His 2,484 yards was second most in
the Southwest Ohio area and he ran for 200+ yards eight times in games
last season. He was named CHL Offensive Player of the Year, Southwest
Ohio District Div. IV Player of the Year (for the second time),
Cincinnati Div. IV Player of the Year (Enquirer) and Ohio Div. IV Player
of the Year. C. J. is also a defensive stalwart as a defensive back.
Last season, he had 32 total tackles with four takeaways (three fumble
recoveries and one interception). C.J. was selected as a first-team
running back in this season's Tri-State Football's preseason rankings.
Big games last season for C.J. included running for 248 yards (three
TDs) vs. Mariemont, 232 yards (five TDs) vs. Madeira and 230 yards
(three TDs) vs. Indian Hill, a game in which he also scored on a punt
return for a TD and had three two-point conversions. He started this
season strong, too, rushing for 113 yards and three touchdowns in a 35-0
win vs. Harrison.
C.J. also wrestled for the Cowboys his freshman and sophomore years and
was a sectional champ and a state qualifier. One of the top
scholar-athlete football players in the state of Ohio, C.J. will play
football collegiately at Western Michigan University. His favorite
entertainer is Drake, favorite movie is Troy and most-like-to-meet is
Joe Mixon.
COACH'S QUOTE – "CJ Hester is a tremendous football player,
teammate and captain for our Wyoming football program. CJ's leadership
and work ethic are exceptional and he is a great example of the
complete student-athlete."
— Aaron Hancock, Varsity Football Coach
