There are some news links from the event last year at the bottom of the page. It is open to any SR from around the country as long as they can get to Houston. Just another example of a TASO official doing things right for Texas High School students.

The Touchdown Club of Houston, along with the Houston Independent School District (HISD), will conduct a Senior Football Showcase for all unsigned class of 2011 Sr. football players. This Showcase is 100% free for all participants and colleges. Last year, the event had 20 NAIA, Division II, and Division III Colleges and Universities in attendance. The event also generated 138 offers of scholarships (roughly 4 million dollars) to the 380 student athletes in attendance.
If you are a Senior Football player that would like to continue to play at the next level then this is the event for you. The only requirements are for the student athlete to be a graduating senior, and meet 1 out of 3 of the following:
1. An SAT score of 1000 (M/V only) or ACT of 18
2. Be in the top half of his graduating class
3. Have over a 2.5 GPA
This is a 100% free showcase designed for student athletes to participate at DIV II, DIV III, and NAIA schools. As you know with these schools, your SAT score is a lot more important then your athletic ability when determining scholarships. To register for the event please go to the following website.
