Football Recruitment Night at Grayslake Central

College football recruiters will meet next week in Grayslake and Rosement.

Football coaches are invited to the 2nd Annual College Footbal Recruitment Night on Wednesday, May 4 at Grayslake Central High School.

The Football Recruitment Night is designed to provide an opportunity for college coaches to discuss the recruitment class of 2012 with the north and south suburban high school football coaches.  The Grayslake event will cover athletes from the North suburbs, and a similar event will be held May 5 in Lemont for the south suburbs, organizers said.

"We encourage each college or university and high school to bring their entire staff for the evening," said Grayslake football coach Nicholas Goshe. "All camp and clinic information may also be distributed during the occasion."
