TOLEDO, Ohio – In the summer of 2017, right before his senior year of high school, Anthony Torres took a trip to Iowa that set the course for his college football career. Seven years later, he could not have predicted where that road would lead him.
Torres is now a senior tight end at the University of Toledo, enjoying a banner season in his seventh and final year as a college football player. But how he ended up at Toledo is a story all its own.
It began with a scholarship offer from the University of Iowa, followed by a frustrating senior year of high school football in which he barely played due to a serious back injury.
