“It means a lot to me,” Schmuckal said. “These guys I grew up playing football with since I was in third grade. And you know, to make it all the way here from junior varsity to varsity to winning regionals, you know, how many years in a row, it means a lot.”
After much consideration, I am excited to announce my commitment to Michigan Tech University to continue my athletic and academic career!! Thank you for all the colleges that gave me an opportunity to play and everyone who helped me along the way. GO HUSKIES!! #2019DOGS @MTUFB pic.twitter.com/r6JemhgEbo
