High School to honor college-bound student-athletes at signing event

There’s a special kind of magic in the air this week at Paso Robles High School, and it has nothing to do with the vintage on the vines. According to the *Paso Robles Daily News*, the school will host its College Signing Day this Tuesday, May 19, at 4 p.m. in Gil Asa Gym, honoring 14 student-athletes who are taking their talents—and their hard-earned grades—to the next level. Whether they’re headed to a Division I powerhouse or a small liberal arts college, each of these kids represents the grit and heart that makes our community so proud.

What I love most about this event is that it’s not just about the big scholarship offers or the highlight reels. It’s about the early morning practices, the late study sessions, and the families who’ve cheered from the bleachers through rain and shine. Paso Robles may be known for its wine and rolling hills, but our real crop is these young people. So if you can, swing by Gil Asa on Tuesday to clap for them—it’s a reminder that in our town, we don’t just raise grapes; we raise champions.
