RALEIGH, North Carolina -- Like most first-year college football players, Tyron Laughinghouse wasn’t really sure how his gridiron career would unfold when he was in the early stages of his freshman season at St. Augustine’s College.

Since those uneasy days, Laughinghouse, a J.H. Rose product, has not only blossomed into one of St. Augustine’s better players, but one of the more exciting players in the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association. Earlier this week, the 6-foot-3, 175-pound playmaker, who is months away from the start of his senior season, was tabbed by getrealfootball.com as one of three players to watch in the CIAA.

The website described Laughinghouse, who won a state title at Rose in 2006, as a “big-play wide receiver who defenses will need to account for.”

Laughinghouse had eight touchdown receptions and returned one punt for a score last season. In 2010, the former Rampant was sixth in Division II in kick return average and made six TD catches. But personal accolades aren’t too high on Laughinghouse’s priority list as he prepares for his final collegiate campaign.
