UH and Washington are trying to get Baldwin kicker Ceejay Santos to walk-on

MN = Maui News


About being named the MIL Utility Player of the Year, the first time they gave out that award, Baldwin's Ceejay Santos said:
"It makes me feel good that we have such a good team that gives me opportunities like that. To make things work when people need me." (MN)


MN Note: "A first-team all-state selection by the Honolulu Star-Advertiser as a placekicker, he matched a league record he set as a sophomore with a 51-yard field goal, later broke it with a 53-yarder and was 8-for-8 on field goals overall in 11 games this season, with four of 50 yards or more. One of three senior wide receivers for the Bears, he also caught 15 passes in MIL play for four touchdowns and returned kickoffs, including a 99-yarder for a touchdown against San Clemente, Calif., in a preseason game.

Santos played defensive back in some key situations, punted at times and routinely sailed kickoffs into the end zone for touchbacks."


About how UH and Washington are both trying to get him to walk-on, Santos said:
"I am still talking with a few other coaches, but those are the top two. They want me to walk on and try to earn a scholarship. I have until signing day (in February) but there are a few more schools that are going to offer. I have to decide whether I want to stay at home and be part of Hawaii and play or take a better offer and go somewhere not as close to home." (MN)
