"I've signed with South Dakota State and will be starting school there this week," said Mondol. "They have an excellent program which is on the rise, are building a new, large sports facility and offer a lot of support for student-athletes."

Mondol prepped at Ventura HS, leading the Cougars to the CIF-SS finals in 2004 and to the semifinals as a senior in 2005. He walked on at Michigan and spent the 2006 season with the Wolverines before transferring home and playing the 2007-2008 seasons at Ventura College.

Now, he'll be back playing college football.

"I took a visit there this weekend and thought the coaching staff was great. I also feel their offense is a good fit for me. My family loved Coach Bailey when he came out to visit us this week."
