Trey Blair metaled four times in the Delco track and field championships.  For the Fords he plays wide receiver, running back and defensive back and this year he could be playing quarterback (go figure, gold medal javelin throwing arm).

He had football offers from the likes of Lehigh, Army, Delaware and more.  Today, he declared he will attend the University of Buffalo via twitter:

PFN: What do you think is the most exciting thing about the Buffalo program?

Trey: The most exciting thing to me about buffalo is my new coaching staff. They have turned the program around completely and Buffalo is getting ready to make a lot of noise

Trey: My best sport growing up was actually baseball until my passion for football grew

PFN: Who is the person who most influenced you in your football career?

Trey: Buffalo feels like home!
