The Churchill Observer would like to congratulate Colin Smyth for committing to the University of Delaware to play football in the fall of 2016.

“I’m really excited, it seemed like a perfect fit,” Smyth said.

Smyth has played varsity football as a bulldog for three years, and after battling through an ACL tear, came back to play and lead the team this year as a senior captain.

“I liked the coaching staff, I liked the team, and most importantly I liked the school itself,” Smyth said.

Smyth has been a consistent part of Bulldog Football, and will continue his career as a Blue Hen.

“Colin is an excellent leader, and if anyone deserves such a great opportunity, it’s him,” head football coach Albert Song said.
