   2012 WPDE All-Zone linebacker OT Thomas is on his way to Division II football and Shepherd University in West Virginia.  Thomas told WPDE's Mark Haggard that he signed to play for the Rams.  Thomas had 225 tackles to lead the End Zone area in 2012.  He made a number of big plays in the Seahawks 10-2 campaign.  OT fell on a blocked punt in the end zone to give the Seahawks a 33-27 win over Irmo and had a key strip and fumble recovery for a touchdown in a victory at home against South Florence.  Thomas capped off his high school career playing in the North/South All-Star game. 

  Thomas becomes the 6th Seahawk to sign a national letter of intent off the 2012 roster.  Click HERE to see WPDE's Signing Day 2012 coverage including five Seahawks who signed on National Signing Day
