Javelinas sign linebacker, defensive back
KINGSVILLE - The Texas A&M-Kingsville football team added two new players to its roster Tuesday, signing Boerne High School standout Casey Freeland and Sacramento City College transfer Torre Watson for the 1999 season.
Freeland, a 6-foot-2, 220-pound linebacker at Boerne, earned San Antonio All-City honors and was selected to the San Antonio All-Star team. An All-District 28-4A selection, Freeland recorded 132 tackles as a senior.
Watson, 5-foot-9, 170-pound defensive back from Sacramento, Calif., was a junior college All-America honoree at Sacramento City College last fall and earned All-Bay Valley Conference honors with the Panthers. He had 14 interceptions as a sophomore.
Freeland and Watson become the 21st and 22nd signees for the Javelinas this year. Five are junior college athletes, one is a senior college transfer and the rest are high school prospects.
