Three
senior-athletes from Levittown’s MacArthur High School will continue their
sports careers on the college level after having signed National Letters of
Intent to play soccer.
Jennifer
Scro has signed with the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, and players
Christina Cottone and Samantha DiClemente will play for Dowling College.
This
season, Jennifer received the designation of All-County player and
scholar-athlete. In addition to playing soccer, she is a member of the varsity
basketball team. Jennifer has also succeeded in academics as a member of the
National Honor Society and National World Honor Society, in addition to being
named an Advanced Placement Scholar. When not playing on the soccer field,
Jennifer participates in Peer Leaders and Key Club and walks in cancer
fundraising events.
Christina’s
passion is for soccer. She has been a starter for the team this season and is
looking forward to testing her skills at the collegiate level. In addition to
playing for MacArthur High School, Christina also plays for the East Meadow
Elite Clubs National League, a competitive forum for the nation’s elite
players.
Samantha
is a four-year starter for the varsity soccer team and has been designated an
All-Class and All-Conference player. When she is not competing on the MacArthur
High School field, she is playing for the East Meadow United U-18 team. She has
also taken an interest in participating in school activities which highlight
autism awareness.
The district congratulates these
senior-athletes on their accomplishments and wishes them continued success in
the years to come.
