Osceola head coach Eric Pinellas says the little things matter to Derrick LeBlanc. “He’s so fundamentally sound,” the Pinellas told FanNation about LeBlanc. “He shows up every day and works his butt off. He’s not a 'rah-rah' kind of guy. He’s more of a lead-by-example type of leader. He’s also the ultimate joker. He’s a really fun kid to be around.” LeBlanc enjoys playing basketball and fishing when he’s not on the gridiron. He plans on majoring in sports medicine in college. LeBlanc's parents are Nadia and Ricardo LeBlanc. His sibling is Malisha LeBlanc.
