Pridgeon also rounded out September with official visits to both West Virginia University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill which ended in him receiving scholarship offers from both schools.

Syracuse, being just one of almost 30 Division I schools that have offered Chase a scholarship, is known for developing athletes both on and off the field. Preparing them to not only play at the highest level, but also to be a standout in life as well.
After careful deliberation with family, coaches, and trusted consultants, Chase decided that Syracuse made the most sense for his future endeavors. The BZA Team couldn't be more proud and excited to see what this next chapter has in store for Chase.

As we reach the apex of Summer, Pridgeon adds another scholarship offer to his collection. During an official visit to Vanderbilt University Coach Rich expressed interest in having Langston become a member of their team come Fall of 2028. This is one of a few visits Langston has scheduled this Summer and we certainly look forward to seeing who else jumps on the Langston train.

Many kids approach the end of their senior year with a mixture of excitement and trepidation, as they decide which path to take. There's a good chance that they are scrambling to get the attention of their favorite college, with hopes of getting accepted.

He's touted as one of the top athletes in the area, earning 1st Team All-State honors and putting up a very impressive stat line this past season.
As of late May, the football phenom now has 28 Division I Scholarship offers under his belt. The crazy part is he still has several more official visits before he makes his decision in June. We're excited to see where Chase will choose to continue to grow as a young man and athlete.
There are a few things that keep coaches lying awake at night before games. Constructing an effective gameplan, assessing their personnel, and of course Langston Pridgeon.
In just his freshman season, Langston has become a nightmare for coaches all over Loudon County, Virginia. Standing at 6'2, 170lbs, Pridgeon routinely breaks up passes and delivers devastating hits to opposing team's Wide Receivers. So much so that even as a rising sophemore, he already has nearly a dozen scholarship offers from big name football programs.
