University of Alberta Golden Bears have done it again.

Recently, the team announced the addition of Sam Clayton to their football program. The 6’4, 200 pound receiver from Sherwood Park, Alberta will join the team for the 2015 CWUAA season.

With Clayton’s commitment, he becomes the sixth #CFC100 to sign with the Golden Bears.

“I signed to the University of Alberta because not only is it my hometown, but the school has a very good academic support system in place that I feel will help me best in succeeding with academics,” explained Clayton.

Furthermore, he was swayed by the positive strides the football program has taken in recent years under the leadership of Head Coach Chris Morris.

“The football program is also very exciting because ever since Coach Morris has been there he has been making changes the program and the team is on the uprise,” added the #CFC100 receiver.

Clayton comes to the Golden Bears after completing his career with Bev Facey Falcons of the Alberta Schools Athletic Association (ASAA).  Moreover, he has been a member of Team Canada’s under-18 squad.

In addition to Clayton, five other #CFC100 recruits have also signed with the Golden Bears.  Quarterback Cody Stevens, linebacker Brett Van Der Korput, offensive lineman Peter Kozushka, athlete Peter Zajdel and running back Dryden Kalesnikoff are the others.

“I’m very excited to start playing football at the next level, and happy to do it with a great team, with a great program, and with all my friends and family there to support me along the way,” expressed Clayton.
