ST. GEORGE, Utah-Per a report from the St. George Spectrum, former Pine View High School star, redshirt sophomore Kody Wilstead has been named as Dixie State’s starting signal-caller ahead of Saturday’s season opener against Colorado State-Pueblo at Trailblazer Stadium.
Wilstead, a former walk-on, has also been awarded an athletic scholarship.
However, head coach Paul Peterson says Wilstead will not immediately be the full-time starter. Peterson said junior quarterback Keaton Mott will also see some playing time.
Wilstead came to Dixie State after a year playing at Coffeyville CC (Kan.) He also spent some time at BYU in 2017, competing for the starting job for the Cougars against Beau Hoge, Koy Detmer Jr., Tanner Mangum and Joe Critchlow.
