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 […]
Episcopal wide receiver Neo Vossschulte will serve his country after senior year, commits to Army West Point. @NVossschulte @EA1785_Football
June 29, 2021 | Billy Splain
“I’m beyond blessed to announce I have verbally committed to Army West Point. I Would like to thank all of the coaches who have helped me get to this position, my family, and the entire Army Staff.” Short and simple, yet a decision that will last a lifetime for Episcopal Academy wide receiver Neo Vossschulte. […]

June 28, 2021 | Billy Splain
Much like it has been for many other 2021 recruits, the recruiting process came at Pine-Richland linebacker Jeremiah Hasley fast and furious. Starting with his first offer in December, from UPenn, Hasely quickly racked up offers from Columbia, Navy, Army, Harvard, Austin Peay, Lehigh, Air Force, Dartmouth, Yale, Youngstown St, William & Mary, Fordham, Holy […]
Thomas Jefferson lineman Nick Bryan heading to Kent St after senior season. @NickBry46357328 @TJHSJaguars
June 27, 2021 | Billy Splain
Coach Bill Cherpak and the TJ Jaguars seem to churn out high quality athletes every year. This years crop of top talent at Thomas Jefferson High School is lead by tackle Nick Bryan. At 6-4, 265, the size 17 shoe, incoming senior has the frame to do some damage on the line. It’s at center […]
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 […]
Fleetwood QB Tanner Maddocks commits to Villanova @TannerMaddocks @FWTigers
June 24, 2021 | Tristan Klinefelter
Fleetwood quarterback Tanner Maddocks didn’t wait long. Just one day after receiving an offer to play for the Villanova Wildcats, Maddocks pulled the trigger and committed to the Wildcats, becoming the first player from Fleetwood to receive a division 1 scholarship. Tanner said he committed right away because “I can reach all of my […]
Penn-Trafford Athlete Cade Yacamelli makes his choice, will become a Badger. @cyacamelli @ptwarriorfb @BadgerFootball @nolanrucci
June 21, 2021 | Billy Splain
Penn-Trafford athlete Cade Yacamelli knew right away he wanted to be a Badger, from the moment he stepped on campus. “I have said it right from the beginning of my recruitment. I’m not going to drag it out like a lot of these recruits do just to create hype around themselves. I felt that […]
Coastal Carolina makes a splash in PA, lands Gettysburg lineman Frankie Richardson. @Frankie23516137 @gburgwarriorfb
June 20, 2021 | Billy Splain
Coastal Carolina has found the Keystone State. Head Coach Jamey Chadwell and staff have extended several offers to recruits in Pennsylvania in the last couple years, and for the first time since landing Downingtown West punter/kicker Massimo Biscardi in 2018, the Chanticleer’s efforts have paid off. Gettysburg lineman Frankie Richardson was ready to ride the […]
UConn gets a commitment from Stroudsburg’s Nathan Voorhis. Why did he choose the Huskies? @Nate_Voorhis @Sburg_Fb
June 17, 2021 | Billy Splain
Several days ago the UConn Huskies got a commitment from a very talented defensive end from Stroudsburg High School. Nathan Voorhis is an imposing force on the edge for the Mounties, and now after his senior season he’ll be an imposing force for coach Randy Edsel and the UConn Huskie Program. The 6-3 and 230 […]

Blue Mountain Eagle’s Gavin Bartholomew… “A mind led with his heart” @BMSDAthletics … Updated with video clips of @GavinBartholom6
December 12, 2020 | Daniel Reed
A Quick Story of a Change of Mind, not of Heart: After chatting briefly with the Blue Mountain Eagle’s football star Gavin Bartholomew via Twitter, and Messenger, I quickly gathered the feeling that Gavin always tries to follow his heart. Things started out different in the beginning though when Gavin committed to play […]
Canton TE Ben Knapp heading to Penn State @CantonHighPa @CantonHPED @BenjaminKnapp7
November 23, 2020 | Billy Splain
It’s been a tough year for the recruits of the Class of 21. Take Tight End Ben Knapp. The 6’5″ 220 pound senior had to deal with a covid shortened season, just four games to showcase his talents to college coaches. He did so in style, catching his 100th career pass breaking the program record, […]
Elizabeth-Forward DE/TE Chase Whatton is heading to Bowling Green @ChaseWhatton @Coach_Collodi @EFWarriors
October 14, 2020 | Billy Splain
It feels like Chase Whatton’s recruiting trip has been a long one, but it really hasn’t if you count 12 years as long. It started when he was in fifth grade. Then it heated up in February with his first D1 offer that came from Buffalo. That one offer opened the flood gates and all […]

Berwick Linebacker Blane Cleaver heading to Army WP, committed this morning @blane_cleaver @CleaverBoyz @MikeViti @CoachJohnLoose
September 9, 2020 | Billy Splain
The Berwick Bulldogs have a long football history and a storied program. Many former Bulldogs have gone on to college careers, and this year is no exception. Blane Cleaver will join that long list as he committed to the Army West Program. There he’ll be greeted by another former Berwick standout, Mike Viti, who coaches […]
Malvern Prep DB Steven Rose Jr. will head to Delaware to play for the Blue Hens @StevenRoseJr2 @MalvernPrepFB @CoachGueriera
September 7, 2020 | Billy Splain
Dave Gueriera, head coach at Malvern Prep, is no stranger to putting out D1 football players. This year is no exception. Well, there is one. This year, if no changes are made quickly, his D1 stars won’t see the field this fall. Too bad because we won’t get to see the Steven Rose show. This […]
Haverford School TE Matt Carlino will be a Blue Hen following senior year. @MattCarlino1 @FordsFootball
September 7, 2020 | Billy Splain
The saying “it’s in your blood” or “he’s got good genes” is often heard around the recruiting world and with good reason. It’s usually true. The same can be said for Haverford School TE Matt Carlino. His uncle was a stud at Penn State (an Upper Merion grad), Brad Scioli, and it’s not surprise that […]
From Whippet to Nittany Lion, OL Drew Shelton makes an early choice to attend PSU @drewshelt7 @FootballDwest

Upper Merion Lineman Justin Fisher commits to Bucknell @Jfish6ix @UMVikingsFB
August 29, 2020 | Billy Splain
I’m really hoping things change quickly. Really, I want the Vikings of Upper Merion to play this year. They were on my “return trip in 2020” list. Why? This team returns one of the best lines I saw all last year. Two weeks ago, Stefano Nikolaou made his commitment to Dickinson. Yesterday, Justin Fisher made […]
Del Valley lineman Mike Gecik commits to Albany! @dvwarriorfb @MikeGecik70 @kimberly_gecik @GecikMike
August 26, 2020 | Billy Splain
Delaware Valley puts out some talent every year. This year is no exception. Earlier this summer linebacker Jason Henderson committed to Old Dominion. Mike Gecik is the second Warrior to commit to a division 1 school. The 6-8, 270 pound offensive lineman chose the Great Danes of Albany. He chose that program over the likes […]
