Ex-Woodland football players try their hands with D-I FCS colleges

Recent Woodland High School graduates and Doug Coman and Trevor Young plan to continue their football careers in non-scholarship situations at NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) college programs.

Coman, who played slot receiver and running back for the Wolves, has a preferred walk-on spot at Idaho State University in Pocatello, which plays in the Big Sky Conference. He is likely to be utilized as a slot receiver for the Bengals.

Young, a quarterback and receiver last season for Woodland, will walk on at the University of San Diego of the Pioneer Football League. Young is expected to try out at safety.

Coman and Young aren't guaranteed to see the field in 2013 but could eventually earn playing time and at least some financial aid from their schools. Full scholarships at the FCS level are not common.

Both players battled injuries in their senior seasons for the 2-8 Wolves. Coman broke his fibula in Week 1 and didn't return until Week 9. Young played much of the season with a fractured hand.
