Name:   Payton Vetter                                       

High School: Beloit High School

Position in high school: QB/FS

Height: 6’2

Weight: 192 lbs

College you plan to attend: Butler CC

Scholarship / Walk-on: Scholarship

Planned position in college: Safety

Other colleges recruited you or showed interest: Hays, Hutch, Garden City

Why you chose the college you plan to attend: I went on a visit and I felt like that Butler would be a good fit for me. I really like the coaching staff and how the team is a family.

Were you recruited to play other sports at the collegiate level: No

Notes / stats from high school career: 4-year starter at QB. 3-year starter at FS.

2013 Season Stats: Passing: 1,275 yards, 19 TDs
Rushing: 1,164 yards, 16 TDs
Defense: 77 tackles, 2 INTs

Favorite high school football memory: Playing in the state championship this year.

Kpreps comment: Vetter is a rare four-year starter at quarterback and led the Trojans to the state playoffs each season.  Beloit lost in the quarterfinals once, the semifinals two times, and fell to Silver Lake in the 3A state championship game last fall. Vetter was a Kpreps All-State selection at safety this past season and has the size and athleticism to make the transition to the collegiate level at that position as well.
