The New Jersey Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA) recently honored multiple North Jersey student-athletes with scholarship awards.
The students were invited to attend the annual Scholar-Athlete Luncheon, where – through a random drawing – they had the chance to win a college scholarship from one of multiple sponsors. A total of $5,500 was awarded to seven of the Passaic County athletes. A total of $21,000 was awarded to 22 of the Bergen County athletes. A lot of familiar names on the list. Congratulations.
