After getting a slew of college football offers from NCAA Div. III schools and one from NAIA Lindsey Wilson College, Caldwell County senior Tripp Branch has made a decision.
Branch announced on social media on Tuesday that he will play on the next level for Centre College in Danville.
The Colonels compete in the Southern Athletic Association.
Branch, a wide receiver who has also seen action at strong safety this season for Caldwell, has 16 receptions for 305 yards and four touchdowns this year. The Tigers (3-3) had three games canceled this year due to COVID-19 or those numbers would be even higher.
