Trion’s Toby Maddux Set to Begin Next Chapter at Shorter University

Trion football standout Toby Maddux is gearing up for a fresh start as he begins school and practice at Shorter University. Known for his explosive playmaking ability, Maddux put up 3,408 rushing yards and 57 touchdowns during his career with the Bulldogs, averaging an impressive 8.74 yards per carry. He was also a threat in the passing game, racking up 902 receiving yards and four touchdowns on 66 receptions.

After high school, Maddux originally committed to Reinhardt University, but the fit wasn’t right.
