P.J. Wolfe looks to lead Norcross to state title

Norcross enters 2025 without legendary head coach Keith Maloof, who leaves the program after winning two state championships and seven region championships with the Blue Devils. The program won eight games last season, falling by 10 to eventual champions Grayson in the second round of the playoffs. Norcross returns a lot of starters, however, one key piece was missing. Starting quarterback Dillon Mohammed graduated, but transfer quarterback P.J. Wolfe looks to pick up where he left off.

Wolfe transfers in following a stint at Collins Hill. The quarterback was Sports Illustrated’s Georgia High School Player of the Week following a performance where Wolfe had 207 passing yards, four touchdowns, all on 80% completion percentage.

Over the spring, Wolfe played with All-In-Elite at various events like Shock Doctor 7-on-7.

This summer, Wolfe and his Norcross squad have been going to work between practices, padded camps, and 7-on-7 events including the Brent Key/Corky Kell & Dave Hunter Classic 7-on-7 Tournament at Georgia Tech.

“The offseason grind has definitely helped me prepare myself and my brothers for the upcoming year. We show up every morning to compete and work our butts off,” Wolfe said. “We just compete every day with the common goal in mind of beating whoever is lined up in front of us.”

Wolfe’s talent is not disputed, but what makes him different from most quarterbacks in the state is his leadership ability.

“As a senior quarterback, I have to make sure to hold myself accountable as well as offer guidance to the younger guys, especially on offense.”

Wolfe has ideal size for a quarterback, standing at 6-foot-4 and weighing in at 180 pounds. Since going to Norcross, Wolfe has picked up offers from schools like Clayton State, Central Methodist University, and more. If you turn on his tape, you can see why so many schools are high on him. He can throw a great deep ball, and is mobile, a combination which is very difficult for defenses to go up against.

With Wolfe, Norcross looks to go all the way to the state championship. The team will start its journey to Atlanta by facing off with the team that ended its 2024 season, Grayson, in its fall scrimmage.

Wolfe has set goals for himself that he is looking to hit for this coming season.

“I want to have 2,500-3,000 all-purpose yards, 35 touchdowns, win Region Player of the Year, make all-state, and lead our school to a state championship with my brothers. For this upcoming season, my motto is “LANK” (let all naysayers know).”
