30 Oswego Seniors Sign Letters Of Intent For College Sports

OSWEGO, IL — Years of playing sports culminated in National Letter of Intent Signing Day Feb. 1, as 30 high school student-athletes in Oswego School District 308 signed to play a collegiate sport.

Sixteen of the athletes are from Oswego East High School and the other 14 are students at Oswego High School.

National Letter of Intent Signing Day, which to many has become a celebrated event, is traditionally the first when student-athletes can commit with a school that's a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association after a verbal scholarship is offered. Signing as high school seniors, the students would play at their future school in the following academic school year.

"Congratulations to all of our Oswego East Wolves and Oswego High Panthers on their commitment to continue to play at the next level at their respective schools," District 308 officials said in a news release.
