Central Catholic DB Singleton solidified as Toledo area’s next big-time recruit

Northwest Ohio officially has its next big-time college football recruit, and his name is Victor Singleton.

The Central Catholic defensive back is a four-star prospect, according to the first 247Sports Composite for the class of 2026 released Wednesday, which ranks him as the No. 67 player in the country. Singleton is the eighth-ranked cornerback and the third-ranked player in Ohio.

He had four interceptions, including a pick-six, 15 pass breakups, four tackles for loss, and one forced fumble for the state champion Fighting Irish last season.

The 6-foot, 160-pound Singleton has offers from Toledo, Bowling Green, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Pittsburgh, Purdue, Indiana, Cincinnati, Akron, and Kent State.

Singleton wasn’t the only Central Catholic player to receive recruiting rating news.

247Sports also Wednesday released its own top 247 players in the class of 2026. In the website’s own rankings, Central Catholic athlete Preston Fryzel is a three-star prospect and the No. 28 player in Ohio. Fryzel has five offers, including Louisville.
