The 2018 Student-Athlete College Commitment ceremony held this past Friday in Kingswood Oxford’s Alumni Hall saw 17 Wyverns commit to playing sports at the college level. That number represents 20 percent of the graduating class.

Director of Athletics Debbie Fiske said that these talented students spent endless hours crafting their game, played through sore muscles, experienced injury and recovery, and highs and lows. “Anyone can be a student, but not everyone can be a student-athlete,” she said.
