Some 128 Catholic League athletes will be taking their talents to the college level this fall. Those going to Division 1 or 2 universities will be benefiting from athletic scholarships, while those attending Division 3 or smaller or private colleges will be afforded financial assistance. In some cases, athletes will pay their own way to play. We wish them well.
