Wednesday, May 09, 2012
Sports columnist praises DiAntonio’s academic and athletic accomplishments
Assumption College football captain Nick DiAntonio is the valedictorian of the Class of 2012. His stellar sports and academic performance was highlighted in a Telegram & Gazette article by sports columnist Jennifer Toland.

Toland's column talks about how Assumption's 95th Commencement ceremony on May 12 will feature two football stars: DiAntonio and the keynote speaker Brian Kelly '83, who is head football coach for the University of Notre Dame and played for Assumption as a student.

"His (Nick’s) accomplishments extend way beyond the football field," Toland writes. "A math major with a concentration in secondary education and a minor in theology, DiAntonio has achieved a perfect 4.0 grade point average for seven straight semesters. His cumulative GPA is 3.98."
