      Signing Day has come and gone, and a select few of Apex’s senior athletes pledged to continue their ascension in their sport in college. Easily the most committing came from the swimming with four swimmers pledging to their colleges. Both male swimmers, Brian Legarth and Brandon Medins, signed to Washington & Lee University. Ashlyn Butkowski will join the Minutemen at UMass Amherst, Katie Godlewski will be attending St. Bonaventure University, and Morgan Montgomery will attend the University of Vermont. Three lacrosse players also finalized their college choices: Tommy Deluca will join the Cavaliers at the University of Virginia, Jack Hayden will play at Hampden-Sydney College, and Dylan Wolford will attend Westminster College. Concerning other sports, Kaley Barts will take her golfing talents to Catawba College, while Abigail Veit will join the Western Carolina Catamounts' volleyball team. Ben Highfill will play baseball at Liberty University and the lone softball player to sign was Julia Cerasi, who will be attending Meredith College. Apex’s class of 2016 athletes are a strong group who certainly deserve to play their respected sports at the next level.
