Outstanding Players Participate in Ivy League Training


by Kate Blitz, BTHS Football, Sports Information Director


Last Saturday, three Tech players attended the Norries Wilson Football Camp at Columbia University. Olawale Jegede, Kiffele McBurnie, and Oyeleye Odewumni had the honor to attend because of their exceptional GPAs through out the school year.

These players had the opportunity to work with Columbia prospects from all over the country. The camp took place in Wien Stadium, the stadium of the Columbia Lions football team. At the camp, players participated in warm ups, position skill instruction and 7 on 7 games.

The Brooklyn Tech Football program is committed to helping its student athletes prepare for college. The program hopes to provide Ivy League and other universities with not only intelligent students, but phenomenal athletes. By sending these players to the camp, they got the chance to see what it would be like to play for an Ivy League team.
