PC Football Adds 16 on National Signing Day

February 4, 2022
The Presbyterian College Football team under the direction of first-year head coach Steve Englehart added 16 players to the roster as a part of National Signing Day on Wednesday. The 2022 class includes players from Georgia, Maryland, New York, Florida, Indiana, Kentucky, Texas, South Carolina and Ohio.

Coach Englehart Comments
“I can’t say enough about the effort our staff put in to sign an outstanding class in such a short period of time.  We were able to identify young men that are not only great football players but are outstanding students and fit within the culture here at PC.”

“On offense, we were able to sign a dynamic group of wide receivers that will add depth and explosive play making ability.  We also added a good group of offensive linemen that will give us some needed size up front.”

“On defense, we added good depth at every position.  Our defensive staff put together a group that is athletic on the back end and can rush the passer up front.”

“We will continue to sign players over the next several weeks and months.  Areas of focus and need will continue to be the offensive/defensive line positions and kicker/punters. Although we are very excited about this initial group there’s still a lot of work to be done.”
