In the message Pelletier stated that he was "excited to officially announce that I will be continuing my academic and athletic career at Hobart College! I want to thank my friends, family, @CoachAGarvey @Coach_DeWall and @HoldBullsFBall for this opportunity! #rollstatemen #rollbulls"
The 6'4" 210 lbs southpaw helped the Bulls to a 6-1 record for the games he appeared in. He passed for 15 and rushed for 10 TDs. Originally from Portland, ME, Pelletier attended Derry HS before going to the Holderness School (Plymouth, NH) after his SO year. A star on the gridiron and hardwood for both schools, Pelletier is a simply a solid all-around athlete who can make plays.
His highlight reel shows good vision, and the arm strength to get the ball deep downfield. Should the pocket break down, or if he reads an opening at the LOS, he can tuck the ball and make plays with his feet. While it should be noted he played in an 8-man league (i.e., only three OL blocking, 3 WRs and 1 RB) and will face bigger and faster competition in college, Pelletier has the right tools to run the RPO offense that is becoming more common place in today's game.
Congratulations to Joe and welcome to the Pelletier family into the Hobart one! As a guy with some family ties to Holderness, I'll definitely be keeping an eye on Joe and his Statesmen career.
Thanks for reading and go 'Bart!
