    MADISON- The graduating class of 2022 was certainly a well-rounded group of student-athletes as the four local high schools presented a long list of scholarship signees in an array of sports. Many of the elite athletes signed with major universities, but still others chose smaller schools with significant less athletic programs.

Tops on the local talent included Emmah Rolfe of Bob Jones, Alex Wade of Madison Academy, Kenny Hall of Sparkman and Elizabeth Busby of James Clemens. Each of those student-athletes were splendid athletes and students and even more remarkable young people with a bright future directly ahead of what awaits them.
