Kent Meridian senior Quincy Carter locked the next four years of his life in Wednesday morning with a quick series of signatures on a Central Washington University letter of intent.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Go wildcats,” he said of signing with the Division II Wildcats to play football next fall.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The K-M quarterback will attend CWU in Ellensburg with a partial scholarship as a running back. He said that the signing left him relieved and excited.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I worked hard all four years at school and it payed off,” Carter added.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Carter visited the school on the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend and enjoyed the experience. He also believes that the Wildcats new head coach, Ian Shoemaker, has a good plan for the team.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“They’re not just a team,” Carter said, “they’re a brotherhood.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
While he’s looking forward to the whole college experience, particularly the chance to “grow as a person and as a man,” he’s not looking forward to the cold weather of the Ellensburg area.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“It gets pretty cold up there, like below zero.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Carter plans to major in psychology at school and hopes to go into sports psychology, ideally for an NFL team.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I want to put the guys back together after they’re hurt,” he said.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
