![]() By La’India Cooper Hubbard held its annual National Signing Day on February 5th, honoring four outstanding players: Darion Henderson (Div. 408), Charles Allen (Div. 405), Tyrell Dowdy (Div. 403), and Willie Clay (Div. 406). National Signing Day is an important day for Hubbard’s senior football players. Not many players get the chance to go to college on a scholarship that allow them to play a game they love and get a higher education. Darion Henderson is going to Northern Illinois University, Charles Allen and Tyrell Dowdy are going to Culver Stockton College, and Willie Clay is going to Mississippi Valley State. These are great colleges and some are NCAA Division I institutions. Division I schools are top colleges for sports and academics among others. “To be picked, you have to get your high school coach to send in your highlight tape to the college of your choice; the process is very long and overwhelming,” stated Charles Allen. The process is very serious, but it is all in good pay off. These 4 Hubbard players received either a full ride or a partial scholarship. All the hard work they put in really paid off, and they will continue to do what they love at the college of their choice.
