NIC-10's 100 Greatest Football Players: No. 95 - Adam Schlamp, Freeport

Adam Schlamp is one of the rare players who made this list mostly because of his accomplishments in high school.

Schlamp was a three-year starter and all-conference player for Freeport football teams that went a perfect 24-0 in conference play with him in the lineup.

The Pretzels used Schlamp everywhere. He punted and kicked field goals, he returned kicks. He played wide receiver, flanker and tight end and he anchored the defense as a safety.

He was first team All-NIC-9 as a field goal kicker as a sophomore. That year he also finished second in the conference in receptions (31 and third in receiving yards (545). As a junior, he was first team All-Conference as a defensive back an added another 25 receptions for 376 yards on offense. As a senior, he was defensive MVP and had another 17 catches for 344 yards on offense.
