Next up (and closing things out, for now, because you never know if there will be some late adds) are these final four Hobart College Statesmen football commits.
This rounds out the Class of 2029 at 36 (my favorite and old number) new student athletes. This is smaller than last year's class but is consistent with previous years (which ranges in the high 30's to low 40's). I'll have a summary on the new class next week, but at a high level it's not surprising to see areas like LB, OL and DL were priorities.
The seventh player from the Garden State in the Class of 2029 is Saint Joseph Regional HS (NJ)'s Isa Abdus-Salaam. A rangy FS, Isa has good field vision and closing speed. You can check out his highlight reel here.
From nearby Geneseo HS (NY), Simeon Shepard is an interesting DE/edge rusher prospect. Standing 6'3" and weighing 235 lbs. he fits the mold for Hobart's DE role. You can check out his highlight reel here.
That's all the updates on the Class of 2029 for now. Please join me in welcoming all these 36 new Statesmen to the Hobart College Football family!
