Drake Maye Super Bowl NBC intro

When the New England Patriots took the field for Super Bowl 60, Maye delivered his intro with a nod to his roots, saying "Drake Maye, Myers Park High School," choosing to represent his Charlotte, North Carolina, upbringing on the world's biggest stage rather than the traditional UNC shout-out.

Drake Maye must hate @UNCFootball. On the biggest stage of all of sports… He does not mention UNC, but his high school instead. Only @Patriots player to do so. #SuperBowl pic.twitter.com/DPZ58Olhgz

It shocked some fans that he did not mention the Tar Heels. By highlighting the Mustangs of Myers Park, Maye joined the ranks of elite players who use the Super Bowl spotlight to pay homage to the coaches and communities that built them before they ever stepped onto a collegiate field.

Where did Drake Maye go to high school?

Maye attended Myers Park High School in Charlotte, North Carolina.

According to his recruitment history and career highlights, Maye transferred to Myers Park ahead of his sophomore season in 2018 after spending his freshman year at William A. Hough High School in Cornelius, North Carolina.

At Myers Park, he became a standout two-sport athlete in both football and basketball, famously setting a school record with 3,512 passing yards and 50 touchdowns during his junior season. His impact was so significant that the school's booster club reportedly sold out of season parking passes within 20 minutes by the time he was a junior.

Now, he takes the biggest stage in sports with the whole Charlotte area backing him.
