CARROLLTON, Ga. — 2024 Fairburn (Ga.) Langston Hughes wide receiver <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/joseph-stone-147048/">JoJo Stone</a> and his teammates came away with a <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/ohio-state-buckeyes/news/5-star-ohio-state-qb-commit-air-noland-leads-late-comeback-win-august-18-2023/">hard-fought 39-34 win</a> over Carrollton <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWf8PPrxTO8">Friday night</a>. In an instant classic, Langston Hughes’ goalline stand to hold off star quarterback <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/julian-lewis-147051/">Julian Lewis</a> landed the Panthers a season-opening win on ESPN2.



“Just teamwork,” Stone told On3. “Everybody knowing that all 11 have to win on one play for one play to go successfully. I say hats off to my team. It was challenging how much I love the game and I love it. I love these boys. I think our crew over everybody.”



After transferring in from Grayson this offseason to team up with Ohio State commit <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/air-noland-151588/">Air Noland</a>, Stone was hobbled in his first game. He played through it and while he had a few catches, it was a day he watched his teammates carry things.



“Today was one of those days where I kind of had to be a team player, getting banged up during the game,” he said. “Today was a real day I could see where the heart is. I’m just so glad we came out with this win.”

The four-star LSU commit reaffirmed his pledge this summer, shutting down his recruitment. Things are still in good shape with the Tigers and Stone, who will be back in Baton Rouge soon.



“Everything’s going great, Geaux Tigers forever,” he said. “I’ll be there for the Grambling game.”



He was last in Baton Rouge last month for the Bayou Splash, doing some recruiting for the Tigers.



“The Bayou Splash was great,” Stone said. “Everyone bonded well and it was great seeing who will be taking the Tigers to Nattys in the future.”



According to the <a href="https://www.on3.com/news/on3-industry-ratings-rankings/">On3 Industry Ranking</a>, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies, he’s the No. 303 overall prospect in the nation and No. 54 wide receiver in the country.<a href="https://www.on3.com/"></a><a href="mailto:?subject=4-star%20WR%20JoJo%20Stone%20locked%20in%20with%20LSU%20after%20official%20visit&body=I%20found%20this%20article%20on%20www.on3.com.%20https://www.on3.com/teams/lsu-tigers/news/4-star-wr-jojo-stone-locked-with-lsu-after-official-visit"></a>
