National Signing Day!

It’s finally here! National signing day is upon us and today we get to announce the NAU recruiting class of 2011. The coaching staff worked nonstop through December and January to find the best student-athletes possible and bring them to Flagstaff. Coach Souers is especially excited about this group as we were able to land some of the most talented players from the best programs in Arizona. In addition, we signed a number of talented junior college players who will contribute right away.

You can read about all of our new players at NAU Athletics.com.

We are holding a signing day party at Granny’s Closet today at 5 pm. Coach Souers will talk about the recruiting class and we will show a highlight video as well.

National Signing Day! NAU Signs 23 Players!

For the past few months, the Northern Arizona University football staff has been working nonstop to find the best talent it could. And today all of the staff’s hard work culminates on National Signing Day. Head coach Jerome Souers has announced the 2010 recruiting class. The Lumberjacks have signed 23 new players. What’s more impressive is that the staff was able to sign 23 of the 24 athletes who came on official visits to Flagstaff. That success rate is almost unheard of in the recruiting world. That success can be attributed to the careful research the staff did as well as the way our NAU coaches foster relationships with athletes and coaches.

The entire staff is excited about players we are about to bring in. Not only are they talented, but they are good citizens and students. They will contribute greatly to next year’s team, which returns 29 seniors and more than 20 starters. To read more about NAU’s 23 new recruits go to nauathletics.com.
