It was another successful Fall signing period for Sierra Canyon athletes. Six student-athletes signed National Letters of Intent Wednesday in a small ceremony at lunchtime on the school grounds. Three boys basketball players will sign next week.

Among the six signees Wednesday were baseball player Max Nahmais (Northern Colorado), Jazy Campbell (Oregon St.) and Janae Weise (Rider). Nahmais is a baseball player, Campbell plays soccer and Weise is a softball player.

All are looking forward to college, but hope to lead their teams to championships in their final high school year.

Three girls basketball players signed. Vanessa de Jesus is headed to Duke, Ashley Chevalier is headed to Texas and Alexis Mark is going to Boise St. The trio helped Sierra Canyon win the Open Division state championship last year and is hoping for a repeat, along with capturing the Southern Section Open Div. championship that alluded the Trailblazers last year falling to Gold Coast League rival Windward.

Brandon Boston and Terren Frank are expected to sign with Kentucky and Texas Christian, respectively next week. Ziaire Williams is choosing between North Carolina, Arizona, UCLA and Stanford.

All three players are ranked in ESPN’s Top 50. Boston and Williams inside the top 10. The trio is hoping to help lead Sierra Canyon to an unprecedented third consecutive Open Division state championship.
