DURHAM, N.C. – North Carolina Central University has added a place-kicker and a quarterback to its 2011 football recruiting class, bringing the total number of signees to 28 under new Eagles head coach Henry Frazier III.
The additions are Oleg Parent, a 6-0, 170-pound place-kicker from Lake Forest, Calif., and Terry Williams, a 6-5, 205-pound quarterback from Elizabeth City, N.C.
Parent, who was born in St. Petersburg, Russia and came to the United States four years ago, was a place-kicker and punter at Trabuco Hills High School. He kicked seven field goals and 29 extra-points for the Mustangs as a senior, while also blasting 35 of his 50 kickoffs for touchbacks, to earn all-county second team honors. As a punter, he averaged 42 yards per boot, including a long of 73 yards.
Williams, a two-sport standout who led Northeastern High School to its first state 2-AA football championship game in 2010, set single-season school passing records with 2,473 yards and 23 touchdowns through the air as a senior. He garnered all-conference honors as the Eagles posted 13 consecutive victories to finish the campaign 13-3. On the basketball court, Williams averaged 18.9 points and 9.0 rebounds for Northeastern in 2010-11 to repeat as a first-team all-conference pick after being tagged as conference player of the year as a junior on the hardwood.
