Several Salisbury High School graduates competed on college athletic teams in the spring 2019 season.

Evan Kulig, a senior infielder and pitcher for the Moravian College baseball team, eclipsed the .300 hitting average mark for the fourth time in his collegiate career. He finished 2019 batting .355 with a .414 on-base percentage to go along with 36 runs scored (career high) and 30 RBIs. Kulig also was one of the Greyhounds’ most effective pitchers as well with a 3-2 record. He finished with a 3.93 ERA and 66 strikeouts in 68.2 innings pitched.

Chase Rogers, Kulig’s teammate at Salisbury and now Moravian as well, also capped a stellar collegiate career. The Greyhound senior batted .276 as a senior with a .358 on-base percentage, scoring 10 runs and adding five RBIs. He finished his career with 35 RBIs and 32 runs scored.

Lilia Crouthamel got some playing time as a freshman for the Penn State softball team as she reconnected with former teammate Williams. Crouthamel batted .136 and scored seven runs. She finished with a .909 fielding percentage as an outfielder.

West Chester senior Holly Szita capped a successful collegiate career with an impressive senior season. She finished with a season-best height of 1.58 meters in the high jump event at the Bill Butler Invitational in early April.
