Before entering the coaching ranks, Massenburg-Walters played at Wake Forest-Rolesville High School before continuing his career at Pima Community College in Tucson, Arizona.
At Pima, Massenburg-Walters established himself as one of the top junior-college defensive linemen in the country. He earned All-Conference honors during the 2015-16 season and was named to a JUCO defensive tackle watch list recognizing the nation’s top players at the position.
Massenburg-Walters was rated as a two-star prospect and was regarded as one of the highest-ranked junior-college defensive linemen in his recruiting class. He was also rated as the No. 1 junior-college defensive line prospect from the state of North Carolina.
His experience as both a highly recruited collegiate defensive lineman and a position coach who has helped develop All-Conference players gives Massenburg-Walters a strong foundation for developing Shaw’s defensive front.
