On Wednesday, May 28, 2024, Quakertown seniors Tanner Clancy & Brian Hendrzak were recognized for committing to continue their football careers at Moravian University.
“Tanner and Brian have each other to lean on - both are going to Moravian,” coach George Banas said. “It’s right up the road, and they’re following a bunch of Quakertown athletes who have been there, so there’s a good tradition of football players, and they know what they’re getting out of them. Tanner and Brian have left Quakertown better than when they got here. Their class has made the district playoffs three straight years, set a school record their sophomore year, and has been the first team in decades to go 3-0 on Thanksgiving. They’ve never lost on Thanksgiving, and they can cherish that the rest of their lives. I’m very thankful for what both guys have given to our program, and I wish them the best of luck”
Tanner Clancy – Moravian University (Football)
Major: Sports Management
Reasons for choosing Moravian: “Comfort, feel on campus, community location, coaching staff and football tradition.
What was the progression that led you to competing in football at the collegiate level? “I thought about playing in college starting after senior year of football because I had planned on playing college baseball, but that plan didn’t work out. The recruiting process started in November/December 2023 with meetings with college coaches in offices around the school during the school day.”
Coach George Banas says: “Tanner and Brian are two different individuals. Tanner is on the skill side. He’s a fast kid, and he really exploded on the scene for us this year. He was one of our top receivers and a top returner in our kick and return game.”
