May 9th, senior Remington May officially signed his Letter of Intent to attend the United States Naval Academy. His hard work and leadership have earned him a place at one of the most prestigious institutions in the country. This is more than a college decision — it’s a commitment to serve, lead, and make a lasting impact. We are all so proud of you and can’t wait to see the amazing things you’ll accomplish as a future officer in the U.S. Navy!
The varsity baseball games at Palmyra are running well ahead of schedule so the first Highland game will start early!! GO COUGARS!
