Welcome
My name is DeAndre Brown
As a former student-athlete that played football at the Junior College, NAIA, and Division 1 level, I understand the needs and desires of aspiring student athletes wanting to play collegiate sports. I established Lace Up in 2019 to instill the necessary values to becoming successful on and off the field, to provide the tools to succeed in college socially, academically, athletically, and financially, and most importantly create well-rounded individuals that look to have a positive impact on our world. Lace Up will be an unlimited resource for young men and women to fulfill their potential from the moment they realize their desire for a post-secondary education until well after they have obtained their respected degrees.
