Dalton Kindt signs with Hobart College

Mason County senior Dalton Kindt signed today to play football and further his education at Hobart College, an NCAA Division III school, in Geneva, New York.

Kindt said he had offers from Division I and Divisions II schools, but with those schools, "it was all about football, and I really wanted to focus on the academic side of things."

Kindt said Hobart College has guaranteed paid internships.

"What I want to study is International Marketing, and a minor in Entrepreneurship," Kindt said. "So, really, I will go around the world to do what I want to do and they will pay me."

Kindt played multiple positions on the Mason County offensive and defensive lines.

He said he will compete for the right guard position going in at Hobart. The center will graduate next year and Kindt said the coaches want him to learn the center position as well.

Mason County coach Jonathan Thomas said Kindt "was a blessing to coach."

Thomas said he told the Hobart coach that Kindt "will be a great teammate, a great brother, you know, he's all about putting other guys in front of himself."

Kindt was the indoor state champion in the shot put last year. 

He is not sure if he will be able to compete in track and field at Hobart because what he wants to do academically will take him away from campus during the track and field season.
