WPCNR PRESS BOX. November 16, 2005: Elise Bronzo, White Plains Tigers basketball leader and "great teammate," in the emotional words of one her Tiger mates, signed a letter of intent to play basketball with Colgate University today for four year Division I basketball scholarhip in a ceremony in the Guidance Department of White Plains High School. Ms. Bronzo's signing came a day after Kelsey Kulk, Tigers star softball pitcher and centerfield signed a Letter of Intent to play Division I softball with Kennesaw State University on a 4 year scholarship.

In an emotional ceremony that saw her Tiger team say how much her leadership meant to them in their ride to second in the state last year, Ms. Bronzo paid tribute to her parents, Paul and Stephanie Bronzo, her coaches and the school. She told WPCNR she chose Colgate because of its tremendous support for the student athlete, its coach, and the commitment to basketball there. She also promised that she and the WPHS White Plains Womens Basketball team had some unfinished business this season, and that "though other teams are gunning for us, we're gunning for them." Gary Matthews (standing) perhaps said it best in today's ceremony that Ms. Bronzo is the epitome of the student athlete. Photo, WPCNR Sports.
