South Fayette lineman chooses Liberty

Nolan Spicer, a 6-foot-4, 265-pound offensive tackle-defensive end at South Fayette, recently made a verbal commitment to Liberty University, an NCAA Division I-AA school in Virginia.

"A number of I-AA schools really liked him," said South Fayette coach Joe Rossi. "William & Mary, Delaware ... But he fell in love with Liberty and committed."

Manny Rojas, a former West Allegheny player, is an assistant coach at Liberty and recruited Spicer. Rojas is recruiting Western Pennsylvania.

Good stuff. If we were really competing with W&M and Delaware this is a great pickup.
