Grant Newsome article
Just got home from work and waiting for me in the mail was my high school's alumni magazine featuring none other than Grant Newsome on the cover. I have yet to read the article, but it's a pretty long piece for the publication. You should be able to access it from the link provided. The article starts on page 22.

Your high school has an alumni magazine?

Most big-time independent (private) schools do. And Lawrenceville is one of the big-timeiest. $65k/year, powerhouse programs across the board, etc.
An alumni magazine is a fundraising tool, in addition to its other functions.
We have Ojabo coming in next year from Blair Academy, which is a little more rural, a little, some would say a lot, less big-timey than Lawrenceville. But still in that same NJ-NY independent school community.

Went to Lville as well! I’m a few years older than Grant but he was in my sisters grade. Super nice guy from the one time i met him.

Glad he doing well off the field. He's an excellent example of a student athlete, and hopefully he goes on to do great things.
*sigh* Losing Newsome, imho, resulted in the Iowa and OSU losses that year. He was doing a great job at tackle.

Wow, great story!
Everyone should just vote for him tomorrow ;)

This was a fascinating read. Thanks for sharing. I already had a very high opinion of Grant and this article just reinforced it. What a great young man. And it paints the University in a great light as well - it’s not just lip service that we take care of our athletes - and that makes me proud as an alum.
