Dowagiac Union 2018 "ATH" Caleb Murphy didn't wait long to commit once offered by Grand Valley State University. Murphy held a few other DII offers and at one point an opportunity to play at Air Force.

It was tough to miss the Southwest Michigan product who is 6'4" 210 lbs and can play just about anywhere needed on the field both in high school and where he'll be asked to play in college.

"The decision for me was where I felt most comfortable and how the team reacted to me when I went there," said Murphy. "The atmosphere and the team made me feel like I was home! They made me feel like family and I love the program and people there!"

Murphy lined up at just about every skill position while in high school and GVSU has narrowed it down to defense, explained Murphy, "They plan to use me at a rush end and D- end type player and pass rush, more could come but that’s all for now they say."

Caleb Murphy had a great senior season as his Chieftains squad lost a tough game to Kalamazoo United in Round 1. Murphy provided his outlook on his senior season, "My senior season was amazing I played around my best friends and had a season that brought me from under the radar! What’s next is to show the college level that us Lakers are no joke and I’m coming for anybody whoever doubted me!"
