Lights land Chinook star tight end

Sugarbeeter Reese Elliot to play football at MSU-Northern

The Montana State University-Northern football team is getting closer to starting preparations for a Frontier Conference spring football season. But, the Lights, of head coach Andrew Rolin, also continue to prepare for the long-term future, and that's what Rolin has done with his newest recruit.

Tuesday, Rolin announced that Chinook tight end Reese Elliot has signed to play for the Lights starting next fall.

Elliot, at 6-8, is a physical specimen and will certainly be the prototype tight end the Lights are looking for, as he also weighs in at 230 pounds.

In each of the last two seasons, Elliot has been Chinook's leading receiver, and he has earned Northern C All-Conference honors for his efforts.

Of course, Elliot is also a standout on the basketball court for the Sugarbeeters. He's had a dominant junior season for head coach Mike Seymour and will be a major force for the Sugarbeeters this winter.

"Another big signing from the Hi-Line," Rolin said.

The Lights also recently added Glasgow All-State running back Jesse Lee to the Class of 2021. Rolin noted that a full high school recruiting list will be released in February.
