One of Section VII’s greatest wide receivers of all time is set to take on the challenge of carrying over his play to the NCAA Division I level. Plattsburgh High School’s Dominic DeAngelo signed his official letter to Wagner College football, a Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) program in Staten Island, N.Y. “It’s been fun, man,” DeAneglo said. “I’m so blessed to be in this position, and I wouldn’t be in this position without my family, my friends, teammates, coaches and everybody, and I’m just really blessed, and it’s been so fun throughout the whole process.”DeAngelo said Wagner was the first school he visited in his college search. When he compared the school to the other options he had on the table, he decided that becoming a Seahawk was the right fit for him. “I fell in love with it,” DeAngelo said. “When it felt like it was time to make my decision I just love Wagner, I love the staff, I love everything about it, Wagner really just felt like home for me.” DeAngelo finished his high school football career with the most receiving yards in Section VII history at 2,098 and 25 total touchdowns. DeAngelo knew his senior season was going to be different, surrounding a coaching change with new head coach Justin Hart stepping in, but under new leadership Plattsburgh succeeded. They finished the Champlain Valley Athletic Conference regular season in third place, and made a ton of great memories that DeAngelo will cherish for the rest of his lifetime. “My senior year was a fun ride,” DeAngelo said. “One instant classic against Saranac High School, and coach (Justin) Hart. What a great energy he brought to practice … it was so fun to play for him and play for everybody with the teammates I had. It felt like the school was behind us, more than that has ever been. It was just awesome.”DeAngelo still has more work to do at Plattsburgh before he graduates. He still is competing for his school’s indoor track and field team and will join Plattsburgh High School baseball as they look to defend the Class A sectional title for the third straight year.
