TRUSSVILLE – Four area juniors have been offered football scholarships from Arkansas State in the immediate aftermath of National Signing Day 2015.
Hewitt-Trussville QB Zac Thomas and RB Jarrion Street each received their first offers from the Sun Belt program. The backfield tandem looks to improve upon their junior seasons, as they led the Huskies to a 5-6 record and a first-round playoff berth under first-year head coach Josh Floyd.
Clay-Chalkville also had a pair of offensive players offered by the Red Wolves. QB Ty Pigrome, Class 6A’s Back of the Year, and WR TJ Simmons added to an already present offer list. Pigrome holds offers from Southern Miss and South Alabama. Simmons has received an offer from Mississippi State, Cincinnati and South Alabama.
The pitch-and-catch pair led the Cougars to unprecedented heights last season, going 15-0 and bringing the school its second state championship. Pigrome scored 61 touchdowns in total, with 17 of those going to Simmons.
