SPARTANBURG, SC – Wofford College football coach Mike Ayers announced on Monday the signings of three additional student-athletes to National Letters of Intent for the upcoming season. Joining the Terriers’ signing class are defensive back Trey Diller, defensive lineman Alex Goltry and defensive lineman Ameet Pall.

Diller, a 6-2, 198 pound defensive back, played for three seasons at The Woodlands College Park High School. In 2007, he earned first-team all-district and first team all-county honors at wide receiver and also earned first-team all-district honors as a return specialist. Overall he had 59 catches for 1,046 yards and 23 touchdowns, three punt return touchdowns, two interceptions and two sacks. He also averaged 31 yards per kickoff return and 18 yards per punt return. As a junior he was first-team all-district and first-team all-county as a wide receiver. He also runs track, competing in the 4x100, 4x200 and 4x400 relays and the triple jump.

Goltry, a 6-1, 220 pound defensive lineman, played for Bearden High School in Knoxville, Tennessee. In 2007 he was named All-Region as an offensive lineman and a defensive tackle. He made 78 tackles - 31 for loss - and nine sacks in leading the Bulldogs to a district championship and the Class 5A state semifinals as a senior. In three seasons, he posted 129 tackles and 13 sacks.

Pall, a 5-11, 235 pound defensive lineman, played the last two seasons at Vanier College in Montreal, Quebec. In 2007, the team won their second straight Bol d'Or trophy, which goes to the champion of the CEGEP Triple-A football league. Pall was named MVP of the Bol d’Or in both 2006 and 2007 and also received all-league honors. He holds the school’s all-time and single season sack records. Vanier College also produced former Carolina Panther Tshimanga Biakabutuka.

Wofford has now signed a total of twenty student-athletes for the 2008 season. The 2007 Southern Conference Champions will welcome twelve players on defense and eight players on offense. The student-athletes are from nine different states and Canada, including five from Georgia and four from North Carolina.

Last season the Terriers were 9-4 and advanced to the quarterfinals of the NCAA FCS Playoffs. In 2008, they will open the season August 30 against Presbyterian College at Gibbs Stadium.

The eligibility of all student-athletes is contingent upon admission to Wofford College and compliance with all NCAA rules, including registration with the NCAA Clearinghouse.
