Harold Joiner received his U.S. Army All-American Bowl jersey as part of the team's selection tour on Wednesday.

MOUNTAIN BROOK, AL — Spartans RB Harold Joiner was honored as one of the country's best high school players on Wednesday when he received his U.S. Army All-American Bowl jersey as part of the team's selection tour, sponsored by American Family Insurance. The bowl pits the nation's 100 best players against one another in an East vs. West bout in San Antonio.
Joiner, a four-star recruit standing at 6-3, 218-pounds, is the No. 5 best running back in the country and No. 3 statewide. He is still uncommitted for college play, but is entertaining nearly 30 offers from schools like LSU, Alabama, Auburn, USC and UCLA, though he is leaning toward LSU at the moment, according to USA Today.
The U.S. Army All American Bowl, presented by American Family Insurance, will commence on Jan. 6 at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas, and will be televised live on NBC at 1 p.m. EST.
