West Orange High School Class of 2026 soccer standout Marcus Jackson experienced one of the biggest nights in sports this week, walking the ESPYS red carpet, taking the stage, and appearing live during ESPN's broadcast as the Gatorade National Boys Soccer Player of the Year. Representing West Orange, New Jersey, and high school soccer on a national stage, Marcus added another unforgettable moment to a remarkable senior year. In just a few weeks, Marcus will head to UCLA to begin the next chapter of his academic and athletic career.
