Granville, attending Illinois State University, began playing football at FBCA during his senior year as a defensive end. In a short period of time, Granville worked hard to become an integral part of the FBCA Eagles.

Walter, attending Houston Baptist University, has been a force on both sides of the ball for the Eagles. Walter earned numerous accolades throughout his time at FBCA. His most recent honors being Second Team Offensive All-District and Honorable Mention Defensive All-District.

“We at FBCA are very proud of this achievement, and I am sure they will continue to see success at the collegiate level. While their paths to the NCAA each look very different, both of these young men have put in the sweat, hard work and sacrifice to be able to sign a National Letter of Intent today.” -Kelly Carroll, Director of Athletics
