Dallas’ Jake DelGaudio’s amazing return to the football field

July 29, 2021 Joseph Santoliquito

The whirl of the crowd on a balmy Friday night vanished. Lips were moving without sound, arms were rapidly motioning for the trainers. Everything took a gauzy grey surreal turn, with players and officials moving in slow motion, moving to Jake DelGaudio. DelGaudio himself didn’t know why, until he looked down and saw a shoe—his […]

Recruiting

St. Joe Prep’s Keenan Nelson is headed to South Carolina

July 23, 2021 Joseph Santoliquito

When Keenan Nelson was a freshman at St. Joseph’s Prep, a Rutgers recruiter saw enough in the 5-foot-10, 170-pound defensive back to make him an offer then. Through time, Nelson’s stature and his size blossomed, turning into a sturdy, muscular 6-foot-1, 200-pound cornerback that many major colleges in the country wanted. Last weekend, Nelson made […]
