Matthew Welch brings all-state pedigree and nasty OL upside to East Texas A&M
Matthew Welch is a 2026 East Texas A&M offensive lineman from Lake Worth, Texas, with a strong resume: district MVP offensive lineman in 2021 and 2022 and TSWA 4A All-State honors in both seasons. He’s a 6-foot-3, 315-pound road grader with powerlifting and track background, which hints at the kind of force and athletic pop coaches love in the trenches. He hasn’t posted game stats as an OL, but the appeal is clear: sturdy, proven, and battle-tested. If you need a physical lineman who fits a run-first, tough-minded identity, Welch is a sensible bet.
