GMC Football Has 19 Moving On To Four-Year Schools

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. – The Georgia Military College football team will have 19 of its football student-athletes moving on to four-year schools, including 12 who signed letters-of-intent on National Signing Day.

Eight student-athletes were present on the GMC campus in a ceremony Wednesday at the Sibley-Cone Library to sign with their respective college or university.

Along with seven student-athletes who signed letters-of-intent, punter John David Mote signed a certificate of commitment to attend the United States Military Academy in West Point.

Mote is the first student-athlete from GMC to move on to West Point and pursue a degree and play for the Black Knights.
