West Bloomfield 2018 S Richard Sanders committed to the Grand Valley State Lakers late on Friday evening, becoming the 24th commit in Michigan for the Lakers class of 2018.
Sanders played one season for the Lakers after missing his junior season after moving from Texas, but it was definitely an impressive senior season for the DB/OLB/LS. Sanders was a part of an incredible 2017 West Bloomfield team that was the Division 1 runner-ups.
Sanders also had an offer from Saginaw Valley State since the season ended.
8/23/2017 After missing all of the 2016 season after transferring from Texas, Sanders is ready to eat the fruits of his labor. Sanders is a versatile defender who can line up in several DB roles as well as an OLB in packages so it will be exciting to see him hit the field after being forced to sit for so long.
- College interest: Sanders earned his lone offer from Akron in June. He's had a tough off-season with no junior film, so a good senior season will open doors.
