Ohio State Commit Bryce West Embracing Playing Safety for Glenville This Season, Looks Forward to Playing with Miles Lockhart and Aaron Scott

When Bryce West took the field for his first defensive snap on Friday, he was lined up in a different position than normal.

The four-star Ohio State cornerback commit proudly donning Buckeye gloves was deployed primarily as a safety in Glenville’s 34-10 victory over Olentangy Liberty and shut down most of the passes thrown his way. West also made a couple of nice stops in run defense as well. Coming off a state championship a year ago, Glenville coaches wanted West to have an opportunity to make more plays on defense this season, considering teams often avoided throwing at him while he was lined up at cornerback in 2022.
