February 6, 2019 was an exciting day for some of the top senior class cross country and track and field athletes in Central Pennsylvania. National Signing Day 2019 has come and gone with a lot of excitement and optimism for the future. It’s a day that underclassmen can look up to their friends, teammates, and mentors and set their own aspirations to the day they too may be able to announce where they will take their talents. It’s a day of immense pride for the families and coaches of these athletes.
Congratulations to the seniors below, who through hard work and dedication have announced their intentions for the next phase of their lives. We wish them the very best!
