Mountain Verbals to BG Football


There's a new verbal for BG.  His name is Dawson Hildebrand from Troy, OH.  He's very interesting.  His junior year was his first year of playing HS football.  He's 6'3" and 332 pounds and he's known as The Mountain around the team. 

In the story linked above, he made a key blocked punt and there's another story out there about something similar.  So you wonder if this might be a born playmaker and a young man ready to grow into being a player.  

According to this story in the Dayton Daily News, "in recent weeks, Hildebrand received scholarship offers from Findlay, Tulane, Western Illinois and others."

Also this, which I think really is interesting
He attended Newton High School his first two years and finished fifth in the Division III state track and field meet in the shot put as a sophomore. He also was a state qualifier in the discus. He finished fourth in the shot put as a freshman.
You're 4th in the state in shot put as a freshman...there's athletic ability involved in that.  He's big but he's more than big at that point.

Welcome to the Falcons, Dawson.
