National Signing Day

National Signing Day

Feb 8, 2011

Thursday, February 3rd 2011 it was packed inside the Paramus Catholic school library. I am sorry to say I didn’t get a really great picture of the three guys, I didn’t feel like pushing other media types out of the way. But it was a big afternoon for the Paladins, from left, star DT Marquise Wright made it official, signing with Rutgers. Matt Giachinta…you know, when people sign with Army, they don’t really sign, they receive an appointment to West Point. That’s always special. Giachinta will spend a year at Army Prep, before moving up. Brendan Walsh signed with Colgate. Walsh had my favorite moment of the day, when he couldn’t help but flash a big smile after signing his letter. You couldn’t help but be happy for him.
There was more….

Paladins coach Chris Partridge announced there were six other Paladin football players in the college pipeline. He said that Geo Santos was committed to New Haven. Kevin Bless was going to attend Valley Forge Prep.
He also said four others were narrowing down their schools of choice.
Anthony Greenfield – Wagner/Muhlenberg/Union
Joe Zito – Wagner/Kings
Bryant Klein – Norwich/Springfield/RPI
Derick Brown – Western New England or Springfield
