Daniel Carter - Marquette University High


Daniel Carter is a running back from Marquette University High in Wisconsin.  A very good all-purpose back, Daniel is equally adept running the ball or making catches out of the backfield.  He rushed for over 1000 yards on the season, including a school record 330 yards in a single game.  Whoa!  With the graduation of our own multi-purpose back, Carson Dunn, Carter is a great get for us.  Can't wait to see what he can do in the Scarlet and Black next fall!

Matt Siff - Montgomery Blair High School


Matt is a quarterback from Montgomery Blair in Silver Spring, Maryland.  An all-county selection, Matt throws a very nice deep ball and is a master of play action.  He's a natural leader and a student of the game.  We're very excited to get him on campus and getting to work!

Dustin Saia - Sioux City West


Dustin is a wide receiver and defensive back from Sioux City West.  We will likely use him primarily as an offensive player, but I love his versatility.  Dustin is a good route runner, is good with the ball in his hands, and is an effective blocker on the perimeter.  He'll be a great fit with what we do offensively, and I can't wait to get him on board!

Stephen is a versatile defensive player form St. Stephens Episcopal in Austin, TX.  He has played defensive end, outside linebacker, and even a little inside linebacker.  He's indicated that he prefers to play with his hand on the ground, and you gotta love that attitude!  Stephen has a great frame and a high motor, we're very excited to add another piece to our rapidly improving defense.  Can't wait to get you here, Stephen!

Will Borda - Tower Hill School


Will is a versatile offensive player that could line up as a wing, in the slot, or out wide.  He even played quite a bit of defensive end as a senior.  I love the versatility he brings, he should be a great addition to our offense, but I also love the character he'll bring to the team.  Recently he was recognized at the Delaware Interscholastic Football Coaches Association All-State Banquet, where he was presented with the DIFCA Sportsmanship Award.  Congratulations on your award Will, can't wait to get you here as part of the family!

Patrick Goldammer - Waterford Union High School


Patrick is our first two-sport commit of 2018.  He's an outstanding kicker, as well as a very good baseball player.  Patrick finished 45/46 on extra points and 5/5 on field goals as a senior, and was  named first-team all-conference, all-county, and all-area.  Patrick will provide a nice boost to our kicking game, we're very excited to add him to the Family.

Prescott Miller - Hinsdale Central


Prescott Miller played on both the offensive and defensive lines at Hinsdale Central, and will most likely play on the offensive line for us.  Hinsdale won a combined 18 games in the past two years, and Prescott was a staple for them over that time.  He's got good feet and a nice frame, and I can't wait to get him playing up front for us!  Welcome to the Pioneer Family, Prescott!

Anthony Johnson - Davenport Central


Anthony Johnson is an outstanding defensive player from Davenport Central in Davenport, IA.  He's the younger brother of current Pioneer Rick Johnson, and comes to us with the versatility to play any number of positions on the defense.  Anthony has great length, is quick off the ball, diagnoses plays quickly, and is a good hitter.  It's been great to see Anthony grow from a solid player as a junior to a star for his team as a senior.  We will have the most veteran defense we've had in years, with every single starter returning, but Anthony will no doubt work his way into the rotation.  We're very excited about what he brings to the table!

Signing Day: 2018

Today is the nationally recognized signing day for college football.  High school players from across the country will be making official what school they plan to attend and where they intend to continue their playing career.  Like many other Division III institutions, our admissions timelines don't necessarily line up with signing day, but we have secured a strong group of players through the Early Decision process.  I'll be spending time throughout the day, and the coming days, to introduce the newest members of the Pioneer Football Family.  These are some great young men, and I'm very excited to have them join us next August!
