Briarwood QB Trotter to commit to Auburn

4:16 pm Athletics

Briarwood Christian School senior quarterback Barrett Trotter will announce his commitment to play football at Auburn University next season today at 2:40 p.m. press conference at the BCS football team room, said Briarwood Christian coach Fred Yancey.

Trotter has completed 66-of-96 passes for 931 yards and 12 touchdowns with only one interception through the Lions’ first four games. He set a career high with five touchdown passes in the Lions’ 36-21 win over Benjamin Russell on Sept. 14. The 6-foot-1, 197-pound quarterback passed for 2,414 yards and 22 touchdowns as a junior.

Trotter will be Auburn’s 15th pledge in the Class of 2008. Trotter, who chose the Tigers over scholarship offers from UAB, Troy, Duke, Army and Samford, will be the third Briarwood player to commit to play college football next year. Senior linebacker Bo Walters has committed to Mississippi State University, while senior defensive end Alex Davis has committed to Samford University.
