D-1A Football Gains Over a Dozen College Football Recruits from Fork Union Military Academy; PrepChamps Combine Last Fall Produces Results

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008, filed in PrepChamps News

From a Military Academy, a Great Football Program, (and a PrepChamps Combine), to College Football Programs Across the Country, Congrats to Fork Union Military Academy’s Athletes. A HUGE shout out to Fork Union Military Academy’s 30+ student athletes now geared for college football and, for at the very least a few, a future in the NFL. The PR that Fork Union ran the morning of signing day goes into much greater depth, but having hosted a PrepChamps high school football combine at Fork Union this past fall and knowing full well that the vast majority of these athletes have profiles on www.prepchamps.com, we knew there’d be at least a dozen or so Division 1-A recruits, with notables signing on to programs at University of Virginia, University of South Carolina, Temple University, Eastern Michigan University, and the University of Georgia in addition to two service academies (US Naval Academy, US Air Force Academy) and the historic Tuskegee University . . .

PrepChamps is closely affiliated with this school and football program, having hosted a combine in the fall and currently having profiles of many Fork Union players on www.prepchamps.com. We couldn’t be prouder of this team, their efforts, and as well the efforts of the coaches and the footbal program as a whole. Check out Fork Union’s football program here.

What’s more, this isn’t just a prep football program, as many would believe from the military academy status and their reputation as a powerhouse in high school football and as a college football recruiting source. This academy prepares its students for life on and off the field as well. In response to the success Fork Union has had in working with athletes to get into college football programs, Head Coach John Shuman said, “They understand our program,” says Shuman. “They know when we say a player will put in the effort on the field and in the classroom that they can take us at our word.”

As such, the word from PrepChamps is simply CONGRATS.
