At SPIRE, student athletes train day after day to advance their athletic careers, and each year a several graduating students receive the opportunity to do so. On April 12th, 2023, SPIRE celebrated student athlete achievement at NLI Signing Day, the day students officially announce where they will be attending college for the 2023-24 academic year, and sign their National Letter of Intent.

Athletes, coaches, and parents come together to recognize the individuals that are continuing their journey beyond SPIRE – both for their academic education as well as their pursuit of future athletic opportunities.

Among those who announced their commitments was South African track and field star Neo Mosebi – who, after much interest from multiple high-level schools chose Florida State.

Other students who signed their National Letters of Intent include:

• Raymiyah Byrd | Women’s Basketball | High School | Denver, CO | Committing to University of Cincinnati
• Jackson Lusk | Wrestling | High School | Youngsville, NC | Committing to Gardner-Webb University, NC
• Omar Abdelwahab | Swimming | High School | New Cairo, Egypt | Committing to University of Minnesota
• Yassen Eltranisy | Swimming | High School | Giza, Egypt | Committing to Grand Valley State University
