Milwaukee Mustangs News Release
The Mustangs rewarded Justin Lawrence and Luis Vasquez for their contributions in 2011 by signing both to the 2012 roster.
Lawrence (6'2, 295 lbs, FB/LB, Morgan State) helped the Mustangs on both sides of the football. As a linebacker he recorded 25.5 tackles, five of which were for a loss. Lawrence managed a pair of sacks and one interception. The beefy fullback reached the end zone six times when he took the field on offense.
Vasquez (6'3, 270, DL, Arizona State) joined the team in June of last year, and made an immediate impact as a pass rusher. Vasquez played in just six games, but still managed three sacks and 18 total tackles.
The Mustangs, who've been busy in the offseason, didn't stop adding to the roster after signing Lawrence and Vasquez. Other additions include:
Michael Diaz (6'5, 325, OL/DL, Arizona)
James Economou (6'6, 325, OL/DL, Southern Connecticut State)
Donald Phelps (6'1, 260, FB/LB, Illinois State)
