He returned in Atlanta, where this time, he had a large group of students cheering him on in the audience. However, he fell earlier than last season, coming up just short on Block Run.

American Ninja Warrior 12
He competed in ANW 12 where he participated in the second episode of qualifying. He made to the Ferris Wheel, but gassed out there and did not make the top 12.

DeShawn competed in the third episode of qualifying. His run was cut, but he once again failed the fifth obstacle, this time being Pretzel Twist. However, he placed 18th in the top 30, and so he advanced to the semifinals for the first time.

Harris competed in the third Semi-Final run. His run got digested, but he was shown to be one of eleven to fail Padlock. His time to the obstacle squeezed him into 14th place, meaning he would go to his first ever National Finals.

His run in the national finals was also digested, but it was shown that he face planted on the very first obstacle Slide Surfer, falling there.
