Signing Hometown Talent: Terry McGowan

WICHITA FALLS, Texas (KAUZ) - On this week’s edition of Signing Hometown Talent, News Channel 6 Sports is featuring another Legacy football player taking his athletic abilities to the next level. Terry McGowan, who plays defensive back and outside linebacker, recently signed with Wayland Baptist University (WBU).

His decision comes after one of his high school coaches, Terry Fields, a WBU alumnus, connected McGowan and a few of his teammates with the university’s football coaches. After taking a visit, McGowan knew he had found the right place to continue playing.

“We just loved it. The atmosphere was amazing,” McGowan said.

Before spending the past two years at Legacy, the WBU signee attended and played for Hirschi. His sophomore year with the Huskies featured a first-place team finish in District 3-4A Division II and a bi-district championship win over Benbrook.

Now, McGowan will head to Plainview, Texas for his next chapter in school and football with a few familiar faces who will be right there with him: high school teammates Daveon Barry-Combs, Jaedon Boatner and Kevin Riddle.
