Initial red-shirt year behind him, McCullough optimistic entering second season on Northwest Missouri State University football team

Earned scout team honors last fall

Kaleb McCullough is happy to have his red-shirt freshman season behind him as he begins his second season on the Northwest Missouri State University football team.

McCullough, a 2023 Humboldt High School graduate who earned all-state honors in high school, is optimistic as he begins his second year in the program, which competes at the Division I-AA level.

“I’ve been down at Maryville for the entire summer working out with the team. Things are going well,” McCullough said.

“Last fall when I started camp the plan was for me to red-shirt my first year, unless there were injuries that required me to get on the field. Thankfully everybody stayed healthy and I was able to keep my eligibility, red-shirt and grow a lot in that first semester,” McCullough said.
