4 Wreckers Officially Commit To D-I Schools
It’s official: 4 Staples soccer seniors have signed letters of intent with Division I schools.
Frankie Bergonzi (Colgate University), Greg Gudis (Columbia University) and Brendan Lesch (University of Notre Dame) enjoyed a photo opportunity and interview session at Staples this afternoon. Sean Gallagher (United States Naval Academy) was not there; he was running in the FCIAC indoor track championships.
The event was originally scheduled for yesterday — the official NCAA “Signing Day” — but school was closed due to an ice storm.
Principal John Dodig, athletic director Marty Lisevick and head coach Dan Woog made brief remarks. Woog noted that 4 D-I players from 1 class is a special — and rare — occasion, and praised them for their contributions to the Staples soccer program.
The quartet — all of whom played 4 years of varsity soccer — then spoke eloquently, praising their teammates, coaches, parents and Staples High School for the opportunities they have received.
Brendan Lesch, Frankie Bergonzi and Greg Gudis enjoy the ceremony. Sean Gallagher was at an indoor track meet.
