SE FOOTBALL SIGNS FOUR

Southeast Missouri State University's football program announced on Tuesday the signing of four more recruits for next season.

All four are high school seniors from the St. Louis area.

The Indians landed a pair of players from highly successful St. Louis programs, including wide receiver/defensive back Isaac Powell (6-feet-1, 175 pounds) from Class 5A state champion Hazelwood Central.

Leotis Belcher (6-3, 180), a wide receiver/defensive back, will join the Southeast program from Mehlville, which was one of the 5A favorites before being ousted in the playoffs.

Rounding out Tuesday's signings are Ranyea Burnett (6-4, 190), a quarterback/defensive back from Cleveland Naval ROTC, and Nate Olish (6-7, 250), a defensive lineman from Marquette.

The four most recent players join nine signees that were announced last week. Those 13 will join the Indians for fall practice in August.

In addition, four junior-college transfers are already enrolled at Southeast for the spring semester and will participate in spring drills next month.
