His mind is made up!




ALL-American Linebacker makes it official- Shippensburg University

Joe DiGrazio, the Vermilion All-American linebacker, has made his decision on which school he will be attending this fall, Shippensburg University (PA). Joe had many schools that courted him to be part of their football program, so the decision was not an easy one. As the number of schools that Joe was interested in was narrowed, one school seemed to have the academic and athletic programs that Joe was looking for and that was Shippensburg. Joe is thrilled with the all opportunities that the “Ship” has offer and can not wait to get started.

The Shippensburg University coaching staff had this to say about the addition of DiGrazio to the Red Raider roster. “We are thrilled to add Joe DiGrazio to our program. With two very successful seasons at Vermilion, Joe will add experience to our defense and we expect him to compete for playing time immediately. He has a tremendous motor on the field and is a very physical football player. However, the most important thing about Joe is that he is a quality young man. Our coaching staff was attracted to his determination to succeed on and off the field. We are very anxious to get Joe on campus in August and we welcome him to our football family at Shippensburg.”

Joe was a great player and student here at Vermilion Community College and we are happy to see that he has found the right university for him. We would like to wish Joe the best of luck and everyone here will follow his progress.
