Former VHS linebacker receives his championship ring

Former Vicksburg High School football standout Nick Anderson has officially received his college football championship ring for the Armed Forces Bowl victory last season.

Anderson, a linebacker at Tulane University, helped his team to a 30-13 victory against the University of Southern Mississippi in January. He had a total of five tackles in the game and helped shut down USM’s tough offense.

Anderson was star player at Jones Community College in 2018 before joining Tulane a year later where he has become an impact player on the team. He will now be going into his junior season where he will be working toward a starting spot.

Anderson is a 2018 graduate of VHS where he led the Gators to three straight playoff appearances.
