Clearfield DE Oliver Billotte will head to Kent State for his college education and playing days. @obillotte14 @AbigailBillotte @Bison__Football
October 23, 2021 | Billy Splain
It’s not often you see a quarterback that’s 6-5, 250 pounds. That’s what I say to myself every time I say Clearfield play. Oliver Billotte is that QB. That said, it’s his destructive force on defense that teams aspired to have in their programs. Billotte had offers from several schools, but after a visit to […]

Hempfield lineman Daniel Sierk committed to Bucknell this week, we asked him about his decision @DanielSierk @hasd_athletics @Bucknell_FB @HempfieldAreaFB
September 24, 2021 | Billy Splain
Hempfield Area lineman Daniel Sierk didn’t have a long list of schools that offered him, but the ones who did have very respectable programs and the Universities themselves have a high academic standard, and with a 4.5 gpa, Sierk easily qualified. The University of Pennsylvania, Lafayette College and Bucknell threw their hats in the ring, […]

September 20, 2021 | Billy Splain
I don’t think I could name a better place to make your commitment to play college football than to commit to a team hosting 110,000 fans during one of the most accoladed events in the country.

Lewisburg linebacker’s dream comes true, Owne Ordonez will play D1 football for Lafayette @OwenOrdonez4 @LEWISBURG_FB @Ewicks021
August 11, 2021 | Billy Splain
. There’s a phrase thrown around the recruiting world, one that recruits don’t like to see and one that gets overused. That phrase? Well, there’s two actually, “under-recruited” and “overlooked”. In the case of Lewisburg Dragon’s linebacker Owen Ordonez, I prefer the phrase “strike while the iron’s hot”! Ordonez struck quickly. Following a hot July […]

Brown University captured his attention. Enough so that he’s quickly shut down his recruitment and committed to the Brown Bear Program. The 6-5, 295 pound interior lineman made his decision […]

August 4, 2021 | Billy Splain
When you have a proud military family, it’s common for the younger generation of the family to admire those accomplishments and service. Quite often we at PAFootballNews.com see that trickle down in the football world as well. Eli Heidenreich is one such player. The 6-0, 185 pound athlete at Mt. Lebanon has several family members […]

Who snapped the ball to him when he punted and held extra points? Wyoming Areas latest Penn State commit, […]

UConn lands another PA Recruit, York High lineman Joden Nelson commits to the Huskies @joden62
June 29, 2021 | Billy Splain
Joden Nelson has unfinished business to tend to this fall. He helped pave the way to 7-1 record for the Bearcats last fall, but he didn’t get to play in the D3 title game. This year he doesn’t want anything to distract him from getting one game further. After visiting UConn early this month, he’d […]

Cumberland Valley linebacker Troy Collard makes the ultimate decision, will serve his country and play football for Air Force. @Tsc519 @CVHS_Football
June 24, 2021 | Billy Splain
It’s always a pleasure for me to write about a player committing, and it’s even that much more special when they make the ultimate decision to give at least the first part of their adult lives to a service academy. Troy Collard made that decision this week and announced he’ll be attending the Air Force […]
