Dowagiac senior Justin Bennett will continue his football career at Manchester College.
Bennett selected Manchester over such colleges as Adrian and Hope.
Manchester was 3-7 last year with a fairly young squad according to coach Dave Harms.
Although he could not specifically make comments about Bennett because of NCAA rules, Harms said he would leave it up to him to decide what position he wants to play.
Bennett averaged 38.2 yards per punt this past season for the Chieftains. He led the team in tackles with 42 despite missing several games with an injury. Bennett rushed for 225 yards on just 34 carries.
