He made the commitment a few months ago, and until today, there were other schools hoping that he could change his mind. But, Caden Wiest will stick to his word. The most decorated football player to ever wear a Reeds Spring football uniform will be a Missouri State Bear.
In front of an audience of friends, coaches, and family, Wiest signed his name on a National Letter of Intent this morning at Reeds Spring High School.
Wiest is the first three time All-State Football player in the history of the Wolves Program. He helped lead the Wolves to a Class 3 State Runner up finish this season. His dominance on both sides of the ball was a nightmare for opposing coaches. As a tight end, linebackers had the near impossible task of trying to deal with the combination of his size, power, and speed. And, defensively the defensive end showed his versatility, lining up in multiple spots in Travis Cagle’s system. Just as impressive is the work the Wiest does in the class room, earning multiple time All-State honors for that as well.
Although several Division One programs made offers, the ability to be near home and be part of what they are building at Missouri State was enough to get Wiest to be a part of what is going on in Springfield.
