With family, friends, teammates, and coaches in attendance, six members of Hall High School’s Class of 2025 participated in College Commitment Day on Wednesday, Nov. 13, 2024, officially indicating their plans to continue their sports at the collegiate level.

Just a few weeks ago, on Oct. 9, 2024, the NCAA eliminated the National Letter of Intent, which in the past students would sign at this time of year accepting scholarships as their commitment to Division I or Division II sports. Students now accept offers of athletic aid, which are a combination of scholarship and financial aid monies. Students at Division I, II, and III are now permitted to earn money from through the NIL (name, image, and likeness) program.

The students who participated in College Commitment Day at Hall High School on Nov. 13, 2024 include:

• Luc Abbatemarco – Football – Allegheny College
• Lexi Dominguez – Swimming – Southern Connecticut State University
• Miriam Youel – Swimming – University of New Hampshire
• Tyler Redden – Baseball – Stonehill College
• Sullivan Clancy – Soccer – Gettysburg College
• Connor Russell – Lacrosse – Roger Williams University
