Nine senior Mullen athletes put pen to paper and officially declared their athletic residency for the next four years of their lives. November 8th was the declared date for senior athletes from all across the county to declare their intent (with the exception of football) to play their sport at a college or university at the onset of a new fall, and at a 12:45 PM ceremony in the newly constructed Student Life Center in the Sferra Center on the Mullen campus, that is exactly what these nine Mustangs did.
It took them a while to get it done, but they got it done to mixed reviews. A match that took five days to complete, fittingly, ended with nothing settled. The 4-2-2 Grandview Wolves made the trek over from east Aurora on Thursday, September 14 to Mullen High School to battle the 2-1-1 Mustangs in the opening round of Centennial League play. Twenty minutes into the match with the score goalless for either team, weather rolled in and shut the match down to be played at a later date.
