Six VHHS seniors announced their commitments to university athletics as part of National Signing Day on Wednesday, Feb. 3

Each athlete got to decorate their table with hats, soccer balls or other gear from their college of choice.

“They’re not just getting great athletes, they’re getting great people,” Athletic Director Jeff Segars said of the schools that the students will be attending.

With parents beside them and a crowd of students filling the room, each student had the chance to thank family, friends and coaches before signing their letters of intent.
