Head coach Sean Kugler annouced that the program signed 17 football players for National Signing Day on Wednesday, Feb. 1.
The Miners grabbed seven offensive and 10 defensive football players to join their squad. The team’s motive this offseason was patience when handing out offers, and in fact, they have two extra scholarships to give out late, per Kugler.
Sticking to his luck in hometown recruitment, Kugler signed five local El Pasoans to the team including Joshua Fields from Americas, Cutter Leftwich from Franklin and Javaughn Thomas from El Paso High. Now, the Miners have signed 22 players from El Paso and have 35 locals on the roster.
