On Wednesday, Nov. 20 in front of family, friends, teammates, and school staff, Carmen Northwest senior Javante Edwards signed his athletic financial aid agreement to play basketball at Canisius University, a Division I program in Buffalo, N.Y.
The athletic financial aid agreement replaced the NCAA’s national letter of intent earlier this fall.
“We’re here to celebrate not just a milestone, but a shining example of what is possible when we work hard, when we are determined, and when we believe in ourselves and the opportunities that come,” Carmen Northwest principal Ashlei Miller said during the celebration.
“Take that pride with you as you step onto that court next year, and know that with every step you take, you’re paving the way for the next generation. [Javante] has shown that you can be a student and an athlete, and this is what your opportunities could look like.”
