Manny Ramsey: Former Wildcat defensive back goes the extra yard for Fort Hays State

Body

Former Canadian Wildcat Manny Ramsey recently wrapped up his very successful playing career at Fort Hays State last Saturday against Pittsburg State (Kansas). Ramsey’s team fell 35-14 to a very talented Pitt squad, and Ramsey’s final stat from that contest was a solo catch for 7 yards. However, that comes nowhere close to signifying his contribution to the program.
