December 21, 2022
Northview High School lineman John Michael Ward committed Tuesday to the University of South Alabama Jaguars.
Ward had 15 Division 1 college offers, including UAB, Colorado State, Appalachian State, Georgia State and others.
“I chose close to home,” Ward said. “South had a great season last year, and I just really felt like being a part of it. I just love the coaches, love the players, and I’m ready to get back at it.”
During his senior season, Ward had 126 tackles, 30 for a loss and 70 pancake blocks in 12 games as the Chiefs finished as state 1R runner-ups.

Congratulations
Just an amazing family all the way around. The character the Ward boys have at a young age is unmatched. They have God given talent but an even stronger work ethic. He will be successful at the
Next level I have no doubt
CONGRATULATIONS!!! I watched this young man grow up. He was always a pleasure to be around, always polite, and respectful. Praying he will continue to be successful in all that he does. Looks like Ole Rasheed might just become a Jaguar.
