Quarterback Tyler Peterson will play football at Dixie State University in Utah.

“It’s a proud day. I’ve been looking forward to this since 6^th Grade!” said Peterson.

Jordan Rosas will play rugby at Notre Dame College in Ohio. The 17-year old plays for a club team, and he will be joining his older brother, Justin, who received the same Notre Dame scholarship two years ago.

“He’ll show me the ropes. It’s going to be great!” Rosas said.

Senior Jessica Pierce will play volleyball at Beloit College in Wisconsin.
