Eastern Washington University Athletics

Head Coach Beau Baldwin on Swain: “He has the frame to put on more weight, but what we noticed more than anything was that he plays the game at a high aggressive level. He gets after it. He fits into the mold of a lot of tight ends we’ve recruited over the years. He can grind when he needs to grind, but we also saw his athleticism on the hoop court and his ability to make plays on the football field. He fits into the structure of what we do offensively, and will be a great addition to our locker room and what he brings that way.”
