Amare Johnson: Respect Earned Beyond the Field

Greatness doesn’t just happen on the field. It happens in the choices you make when no one is watching. It shows up in the way you carry yourself, the way you lead, and the way you prepare for a future that reaches far beyond the scoreboard.

Amare Johnson is that kind of leader.

As a defensive end for Susquehanna, Amare has built his reputation on toughness, discipline, and relentless preparation. Every snap, every practice, every grind in the weight room is a reflection of his work ethic. But what makes Amare truly stand out is that his leadership doesn’t end when the clock runs out. He is respected not only for what he does on the field but also for the way he lives off of it.

Amare serves as a junior school board representative, showing his peers and his community that leadership isn’t just about making plays, it’s about making change. He carries himself with maturity beyond his years and sets the standard for what it looks like to lead with vision.

He is proof that you can chase greatness in multiple arenas at once. He is proof that preparation can shape your entire life, not just your sport. And with his drive, his faith, and his goals locked in, there is no limit to how far he will go.

Major Prep is proud to have Amare Johnson represent this movement — because he is the movement. A young man who isn’t waiting for opportunities, but creating them. A young man who understands that legacy is built through both performance and character.

Amare isn’t just playing football. He’s preparing for life. And the respect he earns now will only grow louder as his goals turn into reality.

Prepared to Lead. Prepared to Win. Prepared to Be Great.
