“Blue chip” CEGEP recruit lands in Ontario

CEGEP defensive standout becomes OUA team’s first commitment for 2014 class.

A blue chip Quebec recruit has committed to an OUA team to round out the month of September.

George Jean-Louis is the first 2014 recruit for the York Lions.Β  The 5’9, 183 pound defensive back from Montreal, Quebec has played for CEGEP Division 1 squad, Vieux-Montreal Spartiates and Sun Youth Hornets.

Lions Head Coach Warren Craney was thrilled that the team landed a recruit with tremendous talent such as Jean-Louis.

β€œWe are very fortunate to land a Blue Chip recruit George Jean-Louis from CEGEP Vieux Montreal this early,” commented Craney of the commitment.Β  β€œHe is an unbelievable defensive back that brings much needed speed and toughness to our secondary and he will have an immediate impact!”

Ultimately, this is a great start for the Lions 2014 class.Β  However, the task is only beginning and the team had a key recruitment goal for this upcoming year.

β€œIt is paramount for our recruiting plan to have strong roots in the GTA and surround those kids with some of Canada’s best football players,” explained Craney.Β  β€œIt just makes for a better locker room.”
