On Sunday, July 20, 27 student-athletes were honored at the 45th Annual LIJSL Scholarship Breakfast at the Long Island Huntington Hilton.
Every year, the LIJSL awards exceptional student-athletes in their senior year of high school that have best exemplified the character the League was founded upon in 1966.
The LIJSL would like to once again congratulate all 27 recipients and wish them the best as they take their next steps in their journey.
