Gordon reports a 3.4 GPA/18 ACT--June 11 retest.

Gordon: "I'm great at going sideline-to-sideline, making plays and hitting people hard. I want to do better on my reads in passing situations, keep a better eye on the QB and make some better breaks."

Coaches Comments - “Every single bit of attention that Eric is getting is well deserved. We brought Eric up to the varsity as a sophomore and he stepped right in and started at linebacker for us.

“Eric has led our team in tackles the past two years. He has natural linebacker instincts. His acceleration is also exceptional. Eric also has very good speed.

“We had two other very good linebackers this past year that were seniors. Both signed with DII schools and Eric still led our team in tackles. He’s a special football player.” - Matt Prisk
