In the mid-1990’s, Paul was a play-making option quarterback who helped lead the Flyer Program to elite-status in the Eight-Man ranks. He was the signal caller for St. Francis’ first-ever state championship football teams in 1995 and 1996. In the process, Paul helped cement that program as one of the premier Eight Man Football powers in the state. From 1994 to 1997, he guided them to 3 state playoffs appearances (including 2 Class D-2 State Titles) and was chosen 1st Team All-Cornhusker Conference 3 times, 1st Team All-State 2 times, and was also selected Honorable Mention All-American by the USA Today. He was twice named captain of the D-2 All-State football team and was later selected to play in the 1998 Eight Man All-Star Game. During his prep career, Paul was a three sport/4-year letter winner in football, basketball, and track. After high school, he continued his career as a walk-on wide receiver at the University of Nebraska. The NEMFCA is honored to welcome him into the Eight Man Football Hall of Fame Class of 2019.
