The Gadsden area has been known to pump out strong collegiate talent and that tradition looks to continue in the Classes of 2025 and 2026.
Last year, one area player signed with a Power 5 program as Dre Kirkpatrick Jr. followed his father footsteps going from Gadsden City to Alabama. Two more area prospects signed to play at the Group of 5 level, Geraldine’s Jaxon Colvin and Guntersville’s Royce Baucom. Two others ended up going to the FCS level Westbrook Christian’s Cooper Greer and Jacksonville’s Jim Ogle.
