Columbia's Breakout DB with Ivy Rookie Fire
As a rising **junior DB** for the Columbia Lions, Carter McCray exploded in the 2024 season with 27 tackles (21 solo), 8 pass breakups, and 1 INT across key Ivy wins, earning Honorable Mention All-Ivy and Rookie of the Year honors—plus back-to-back Ivy Rookie of the Week nods.[1][3] His ball-hawking instincts shine through elite coverage (8 PBUs in 6 games) and physicality at 6-0/185 lbs, mirroring his dominant Texas HS senior year of 50 tackles, 19 PBUs, and 3 picks.[3] Fearless competitor with no injury flags, McCray's intensity and multi-sport athleticism make him a lockdown corner steal for teams needing agile, turnover-forcing DBs.
