Former Central QB English Leads Fresno City College to Conference Title

FRESNO, CA — Former San Angelo Central quarterback Christian “Squeaky” English is enjoying a breakout sophomore season in college.

English has led Fresno City College to a 7-3 record and last week helped the Rams clinch the Central Valley Conference title and a spot in the playoffs.

English had his best college performance yet by throwing for 329 yards and four touchdowns on 21-of-29 passing.

English saw some limited action last year but stepped into the role of full-time starter this season.

In nine games, he has thrown for 1,707 yards and 11 TDs while completing 66% of his passes.

He also remains a threat with his legs as he has 58 carries for 340 yards and four TDs.

English and the Rams will travel to play Diablo Valley College this week in the 3C2A Northern California Football Region Quarterfinals.

English put up impressive numbers in two years as Central’s starting QB in 2023 and 2024. In 20 games, he threw for 4,460 yards and 35 TDs with only eight interceptions. He added 2,042 rushing yards and 37 TDs.

English was also the leading scorer on Central’s basketball team with 20.6 points per game his senior year, along with 6.2 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 3.7 steals.

He said he intended to continue playing basketball in college, but he has turned his attention solely to football.

English’s brother, Jacob, is a wide receiver on Fresno City’s football team but hasn’t seen any playing time yet.
