LUBBOCK, TX — Monterey High School hosted a signing ceremony for five members of the Plainsmen football team on Wednesday, February 5, for National Signing Day.

Check out the scenes from signing day here:

Arrington, the quarterback for the Plainsmen last season, signed to play football for Texas A&M Kingsville. A&M Kingsville is in the Lone Star Conference in Division II Football with schools like Lubbock Christian, Eastern New Mexico, and Angelo State.

Like his quarterback, Landon Heibert also made the decision to join Arrington at Texas A&M Kingsville University.

Baxter was undecided on where he would take his football talents until Wednesday. The young man decided to sign with Cisco College to continue his football career.

Finally, Makhi White and Dez Williams will join the Lone Star Conference with two of their fellow teammates, but for an opposing program. Both White and Williams signed to play for Eastern New Mexico University.

Signing to play at the next level in any sport is an accomplishment worth celebrating, so congratulations to all the athletes who signed. It is a testament to the kind of program Head Coach Judd Thrash is putting together at Lubbock Monterey.
