Muskegon Catholic’s Chase Willer taking his football talents to Kalamazoo College

 

MUSKEGON–Muskegon Catholic Central senior Chase Willer recently signed his national letter of intent to continue his football career at Kalamazoo College.

 

Kalamazoo College is a member of the MIAA conference and a Division III college. The Hornets compiled a record of 3-7 last season and went 0-6 in league play.

 

Willer played four seasons of varsity football at Catholic, where he started as a running back and slot receiver for two years. On the defensive side, he played cornerback.

 

During his four-year career the Crusaders’ compiled a 32-9 overall record and appeared in the MHSAA football playoffs each season under Coach Steve Czerwon.

 

“I love the area and the vibes I get from the coaches, players and facilities,” Willer said. “I feel like I can thrive there academically and athletically.”

 

But, he will always remember his time at Muskegon Catholic.

 

“Being a part of a tradition-rich school like MCC that not only excels in academics, but is a historical powerhouse in football and being able to be a part of the school has given me the best advantage to be a great student-athlete in college,” said Willer.

 

Willer is undecided on his major, however, is considering a political science degree. Willer has a 3.5 grade point average and is the son of Nick and Holly Willer.
