Punter/kicker Scandrett, offensive tackle Taylor early commits to S.C. State



ORANGEBURG, North Carolina  -- Looking to fill 16 vacancies created by graduation, the South Carolina State football team is in the early stages of putting together its newest freshman class.

The 2013 co-Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference champions are scheduled to invite as many as 12 high school senior prospects next weekend for a campus visit. This includes two early verbal commitments in placekicker/punter Tyler Scandrett and offensive tackle Christian Taylor.

A three-year starter and All-State honorable mention at Lamar County High School in Barnesville, Ga., Scandrett was 23-28 in field goals for his career with the Trojans. His most important kick came this past December during the semifinals of the Georgia High School Association Class 2-A playoffs when he booted a game-winning 25-yard field goal to send Lamar County to the championship game at the Georgia Dome where it fell 14-7 to Lovett.
