Jaydel Jenkins


6-3 180 pound WR Jaydel Jenkins from San Clemente HS has announced his commitment to Columbia.

Jenkins will be the first San Clemente grad to come to Columbia Football.

He grabbed some national attention in November when USA Today featured a great one-handed catch he made in a first round playoff game.

Jenkins is one of those prospects who has a big upside, as he really did not emerge as a key player on his high school team until his senior year.

Andrew Pruske

Next is 6-3 255-pound OL Andrew Pruske from Churchill HS in San Antonio.

Pruske was a unanimous All District selection in a competitive league.

Pruske will be the first Churchill grad to come to Columbia Football.
