Local high school QB Reed Charpia to walk on with Gamecocks as receiver

Jan. 11, 2020

Local QB Reed Charpia who put up 7,700 yards in high school to walk on with Gamecocks as receiver.  After a year away from the game, Reed Charpia is going to give football another try.

The former Brookland-Cayce High standout quarterback is walking on to the South Carolina football program. Charpia is enrolled in school and on campus with the other USC early enrollees. Classes for USC students begin Monday.

Charpia committed to play baseball at USC Sumter but didn’t attend there in the fall. He spent that time training and getting ready for college.

Charpia will play receiver for the Gamecocks but was a standout signal caller for the Bearcats and was known his ability to improvise and make big plays. He put up 7,748 total yards and 74 touchdowns during his high school career and helped B-C to deep runs in the playoffs.

Charpia also was selected to play in the Touchstone Energy Cooperatives Bowl his senior season. Charpia comes from a football family. His father, Rusty, is head coach at Brookland-Cayce and his grandfather Reed was just inducted to S.C. Football Coaches Hall of Fame.

You caught my eye with this one. His grandpa was also Reed Charpia. 

Reed Charpia was a know FB coach around the Charleston area back in the late '60s and early '70s. Seems he coached with John McKissick at Summerville for a while.
