Where Do The Football Players Go From Here?

It has been a very long season for all of the football players at Whitmer High School. Even though some went through the season with minor and major injuries, Whitmer still finished the season as champions. Shane Brown, one of the Panther's linebackers, states "It sucks, you know, breaking your leg in the last game before playoffs; but all in all, I'm satisfied with the outcome of how I played this season." Ken Hayes, one of the Panther's defensive ends, and only a Junior, plans to attend Ohio State University in the Fall of 2011.

Each year, the coaches for the Panthers make their players fill out a form with all of their information on it and then they send them to the school that the player prefers. This gives the players, who have not yet been recruited, a chance to put their faces out there and possibly continue their football careers in college.

So far, there is no word on who else has picked a college to attend to play football. Hopefully, by December/January, recruitments will be known and word will be out on which players will be attending which college. Most of the football player say if they do not get recruited to a college, they will try walking onto a team; even if it means just watching for the first couple of years. Not only are all of the coaches proud of their players hard work and effort, but so are all of the fans that were in the stands watching and cheering on the Panthers every move.
