Signing Day on Feb. 7. These young men have showcased their dedication, talent and hard work, earning them the oportunity to compete at the next level.
Trent Baker, a standout football player specializing in deep snapping, signed with the University
of Kentucky. His unique skill set has earned him a spot as a Wildcat, where he will undoubtedly
make significant contributions to the team’s success.

involvement in our football, basketball and track programs displayed his athleticism and talents
in each program, which will ultimately translate to his continued success at the next level.
Marshall Odom committed to the University of Utah and will join their nationally recognized
swim and dive program. Odom has shattered Friendswood’s school and pool records, including

team. Odom is a gifted swimmer and FHS will keep an eye on him and he continues his
outstanding career.
Finally, Sam Reihle, one of the Mustang’s outstanding Track and Field and Football athletes, committed to Stephen F. Austin University and its Track program. Friendswood takes pride in Reihle’s accomplishments and wishes him well in his next steps in Nacogdoches. He will
