Pagano brings versatile, high-motor backend punch to Charleston Southern
Dominic Pagano’s value at Charleston Southern is the kind coaches love: a reliable defensive back with a knack for impact plays, highlighted by a 69-yard fumble-return touchdown in the 2024 season and a senior-year prep résumé that included 58 tackles, four interceptions, two fumble recoveries, a forced fumble, and a blocked punt. He also battled through injury early in the 2024 season, then returned to play nine games, which says something about his toughness and buy-in. If you want a DB who can do a little of everything and has already flashed playmaking juice, Pagano fits the bill.
