Sylacauga’s Juice Riley selected to AHSAA North-South All-Star Team

SYLACAUGA, Ala. – Sylacauga High School senior wide receiver Juice Riley has been selected to represent the North in the Alabama High School Athletic Association (AHSAA) North-South All-Star football game.

Riley earned the selection following a senior season that was cut short by injury. The South Alabama commit missed Sylacauga’s final three games but finished the year with 39 receptions for 414 yards and seven touchdowns.

The 6-foot-2, 188-pound receiver has been one of Sylacauga’s primary offensive targets over the past two seasons under head coach Chris Smelley.

As a junior in 2025, Riley recorded 67 receptions for 1,127 yards and 12 touchdowns, earning second-team Class 5A All-State honors. He also set two Sylacauga single-game receiving records against Valley, finishing with 11 catches for 224 yards.

Riley transferred to Sylacauga from B.B. Comer ahead of the 2025 season and quickly established himself in the Aggies’ passing game.

His performance also attracted attention from college programs. Riley received scholarship offers from South Alabama, Jacksonville State, Charlotte and Murray State, among others, before announcing his commitment to the Jaguars in June.

In addition to football, Riley has competed in track and field at Sylacauga, helping the Aggies establish school records in the 4x100-meter and 4x400-meter relays.

Riley's selection to the North-South roster adds another honor to his high school career as he prepares to continue playing football at South Alabama.
