“I always tell people Chris and ‘Cush’ are two of the best athletes I’ve ever trained,” said Joe DeFranco, owner of DeFranco’s Training in Wyckoff, in reference to Hogan and Texans linebacker Brian Cushing, a Bergen Catholic grad.

Only a junior, Chris hauled in 47 catches for 819 yards and 12 TD’s. On defense, he had 3 interceptions and averaged 36 yards a punt. After a big junior year, Chris will be one of the most sought after wide receiver prospects in New Jersey next year. New to the DeFranco Training family, look for Chris to be bigger, stronger & faster next season. Chris is also one of the state’s best lacrosse players.
