On November 13, six high-achieving Centennial athletes signed their commitment to their future colleges. Rasa Welsh signed for Campbell University, Lauren Marcotte for Penn State University, Gabrielle Castle-Smith for St. Mary’s College, Ashley Bilger for Frostburg University, Sarah Thorman for Allegheny College, and Zack Steen for Bloomsburg University.
Bilger, a soccer player who will be attending Frostburg for the next four years, found the event extremely sentimental.
“It was a really special event because it marked the culmination of all of the hard work I’ve done,” Bilger said.
Although Bilger is leaving Centennial, she is excited for the opportunities that lie ahead.
“I’m looking forward to playing a high level of soccer and meeting new teammates.”
The signing was an incredible event for showcasing the athletes’ achievements, and family and friends came to celebrate their students.
