Terrel Karim Jr., a senior at East High School in Ohio, has signed his letter of intent to join the Bowling Green State University football program, marking a pivotal moment in his athletic career.
During his high school tenure he distinguished himself as a multi‑position player, lining up at linebacker, defensive end, tight end and wide receiver, and earned Division III honorable‑mention All‑Ohio honors for his versatility and impact.
His contributions helped the East High team finish the 2025 season with a 10‑3 record and capture the City Series championship, while also advancing to the playoffs and winning two games.
Karim recorded 31 tackles last season, 16 of which came behind the line of scrimmage, underscoring his influence on both sides of the ball.
