PERRY -- Four Perry students signed national letters-of-intent Wednesday morning.

A.J. Riley signed with Coffeeville College in Coffeyville, Kansas.

Riley said he chose Coffeville because, “besides football, I like their engineering program and I’m ready to show them what I can do.”

Joe Rucker signed with Georgia Military College.

When asked what was the reason behind his decision to attend GMC, Rucker said, “I like the history associated with them, and the coaches think I can come in and contribute right away.”

Rucker also said, “They have an outstanding track record, and I’m excited about that.”

Marquez Thomas signed with North Dakota State because “They had been talking to me since my junior year and when I went up there, I just fell in love with the place. They made me feel like family.”

Deonte Soloman signed with West Georgia Technical College because his current coach “told me they have a really good program. So, that helped me with my decision process.”
