BG's Ferlan headed to Tufts
Bishop Guertin coach Tony Johnson said he's uncertain where quarterback/defensive back Andy Vailas and guard/defensive tackle Kyle Endyke will end up next fall, but offensive tackle Anthony Ferlan is one member of BG's 2008 team who has committed to play college football.
Ferlan, a two-year starter for the Cardinals, will play for Tufts University, a program that competes at the NCAA Division III level. Ferlan also received interest from several NESCAC schools -- Amherst, Colby, Middlebury and Wesleyan -- as well as Assumption, Bentley, Washington & Lee and RPI. Former BG tight end Nick Croteau was a freshman on the Tufts roster last year.
Johnson said Vailas will likely play prep school football for Phillips Andover Academy, and Endyke may end up at the U.S. Naval Academy.
Ferlan, Vailas and Endyke were part of a BG team that beat Exeter, 14-7, in the 2008 Division II championship game. The Cardinals completed the season 10-2 overall, and 9-1 in Division II.
All three players were named to the Division II All-State First Team (offense).
