Lance Thorell is a great success story from the walk-on program. A kid from tiny class D-1 Loomis, he worked his way onto the field as a redshirt freshman, earning five starts. And despite competing with scholarship guys from bigger schools with more recruiting stars, Thorell kept working his way onto the field, playing in every game in his final three seasons including multiple starts. Off the field, Thorell was academic all conference and a four time member of the Brook Berringer Citizenship Team.
