Pittsburg State signed one of the state’s most productive passers in City High senior Bobby Bacon during the early signing period this month.

On Tuesday the Gorillas gained a commitment from one of Bacon’s favorite high school targets.

City High senior tight end Parker Sutherland announced his commitment to Division II Pittsburg State with a post on social media.

The 6-foot-6, 224-pound Sutherland was a Class 5A second-team all-state selection by the Iowa Football Coaches Association after leading City High in receiving yards and receiving touchdowns this season.

Sutherland caught 31 passes for 439 yards and a team-high seven touchdowns while earning all-conference and all-district honors.

Pittsburg State was 8-3 this season and lost in the opening round of the NCAA Division II playoffs.
