BATTLE CREEK - Lakeview held a special spring signing day on Tuesday, highlighting the future destinations for some of the student-athletes at the school.

Eight Spartan seniors took advantage of the opportunity to have their family, friends and coaches there to celebrate their decision to compete at the next level, including Faith Hewkin, Jaeonna Shelton, Diora Gibson, Andrew Ignatovich, Keegan Hutchinson, Isaac Greene, Jake Kucharczyk and Zach Kucharczyk.
