Catawba Ridge Celebrates Five Signees on Fall Signing Day

FORT MILL, S.C. — It was a banner day for Catawba Ridge High School as families, coaches, and teammates gathered to celebrate the FMSD Athletics 2025 Fall Signing Day. Five standout Copperheads officially put pen to paper, committing to continue their academic and athletic careers at the collegiate level.
