The University of Indianapolis welcomes Brownsburg’s Kevin Hendricks to play soccer and continue his education with the Greyhounds.  Hendricks played forward for the Bulldogs and participated in the program all four years.   Brownsburg Soccer Head Coach Josh Brown shares, “Kevin exemplifies the definitions of hard work and being a great teammate.  He always gave his best and was the first to cheer on his teammates or lift them up when they were down.  Good luck to Kevin as he continues his playing career at UIndy.”

Bulldog running back Ja’Shawn Keys will study and continue his football career at Anderson University.  BHS Varsity Head Football Coach John Hart says, “Ja’Shawn challenged our team to be its best every day by being his best every day.  He will be a successful student-athlete for the Ravens as he continues to work hard and have a great attitude.”

Bulldog Leigh Nutall will play football and continue his education at Millikin University in Decatur, Illinois.  Leigh is a talented wide receiver who played for the Bulldogs for 4 seasons.
