Apalachee High School seniors F.J. Smith and Corey Riley made it official Tuesday when they signed to continue their athletic and academic careers at Union College in Kentucky.

Family members as well as AHS coaches and administrators also attended the Tuesday morning event in the school’s media center.

“It took a little time for them to get where we wanted them to be, but we got the end result we wanted,” said AHS head football coach Shane Davis. “It’s tough to lose players like them, both for what they have meant to us on the football field and in the weight room. It will be hard to replace their work ethic. Union College is lucky to be gaining their work ethic and character. I am very proud of this day for the two of them. We will always appreciate what they have meant to Apalachee High School.”

Also attending the signing were, top photo, back row from left, AHS assistant principal Dorann Mansberger, AHS athletic director Brian Moore, AHS offensive coordinator Matt Sorrells, Davis, AHS assistant football coach Thomas Cox, AHS assistant principal Bill Ruma and AHS principal Glenn Wilson. (BELOW) Smith and Riley sign their paper work.
