Walk-Green is rated a four-star recruit, ranked No. 166 nationally overall and the No. 14 safety in the country by Rivals.com. He chose Washington after narrowing his options to a final group that included the Sun Devils, Bruins, Commodores, and Wildcats, with multiple programs hosting him on official visits before his decision.
The 5-foot-11, 185–188-pound defensive back is coming off a highly productive junior season at Centennial, where he recorded 125 tackles along with 10 interceptions, including five interception returns for touchdowns. His defensive scoring also includes six defensive touchdowns when factoring in additional return production. Those interception return touchdowns came on long returns of 49, 68, 78, 88, and 92 yards.
Walk-Green also added a 27-yard fumble return touchdown and a 94-yard punt return touchdown, showcasing his multi-phase impact. He had standout tackling performances including a season-high 15 tackles against Santa Margarita and 13 tackles against Servite as part of his 11-2 team season.
During a 63-14 win over Vista Murrieta, Walk-Green tipped a pass, intercepted it, and returned it for an 88-yard touchdown after evading multiple defenders, including a leap over a tackler near midfield and breaking additional tackles during the return.
On special teams, he also handled kicking duties, converting 4-of-5 field goal attempts and 63-of-65 extra points.
