Rattler Nation celebrated standout running back Cole Pryor’s signing of his letter of intent to continue his academic and athletic career at Texas State University in San Marcos.
As a four-year varsity letterman, Pryor amassed more than 4,700 yards and 47 touchdowns while averaging over 143 yards per game. These totals included accumulating more than 4,100 rushing yards (8 yards per carry) and averaging 125 yards per game to go along with 45 touchdowns on the ground. In addition to his rushing prowess, Pryor also contributed over 500 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns. He departs as one of top rushers in Reagan’s history.
Throughout his high school career, Pryor received numerous accolades at the state, regional and local levels. He named All-State selection by the Texas Sportswriters Association and Padilla Coaches Poll as well as a finalist for 6A RB of the Year by Texas High School Football. In addition, he achieved San Antonio Express-News All-Area First Team two times while being named 1st Team All-District three consecutive years. He was also a four-time recipient of the John Wayne Player of the Game and KCWX-TV Player of the Game and Student of the Week.
Pryor was also accomplished in track and field as a three-time varsity letterman, competing in sprints, relays, long jump, and the triple jump. During that time, he ran personal bests of 10.7 100M and 21.9 200M while having the opportunity to compete at the district, area, region, and state levels.
“Our man Cole has been riding for the Reagan Ranch for the past four years,” said Coach Lyndon Hamilton. “He opened up his career with a stellar performance vs. Steele and we’ve been bragging on him since that debut. Cole exemplifies hard work in all aspects of his life as a student athlete.”
“We have loved watching #21 grow and mature over the past four years, his hard work has paid off. We are pumped to see what his future has in store at Texas State. Reagan High School will be watching you shine in San Marcos.”
“Keep grinding and we’ll be seeing you under the lights real soon,” Hamilton added.
