(Potosi) Another member of the Potosi Trojan football team is heading to Missouri Baptist University in St. Louis. A signing ceremony was held for Gavin Portell at Potosi High School, and he was blessed to have his family and friends there with him…

Quarterback Blake Coleman recently signed to play football at MoBap. Him and Portell have been friends for a long time, so the thought of catching passes from his buddy in college helped Portell to finalize his decision…

Portell and Coleman have had some big games together at Potosi, but the one that sticks out to Portell is a home win against St. Charles West this past season…

Portell was happy with what he saw from the MoBap football program…

He made big plays as a wide receiver for Potosi, but Portell also played linebacker for the Trojans. He wouldn’t mind sticking on offense, but Portell says he’ll do whatever is asked of him…
