Abington Senior Commits to Play Football at Temple

ABINGTON, PA -- Abington senior George Reid is going to play Division 1 football at Temple University next fall.

The commitment was celebrated during a signing of his National Letter of Intent at Abington Senior High School on Wednesday.

"George is a team leader and hard worker, second to none. George is always the first one at practices and the last to leave," said Abington football coach Kevin Conlin.

During his career at Abington, Reid earned the 2017 Maxwell Football Club’s “Mini Max” Award, was named to many local and state conference teams, and was a featured player in the “100 Players in 100 Days” report. During the 2016 season, George had 31 catches for 642 yards, including six touchdowns. He also had four interceptions and fumble recovery on defense, according to statistics provided by the school.

He was named the top receiver in southeastern Montgomery and upper Bucks counties in 2015.

Reid also boasts an "outstanding" academic record, according to the school.

Congratulations, George!
