A Trojan Rising: Anwar Witherspoon Makes His Division I Commitment Official

St. Thomas Aquinas High School proudly celebrates senior Anwar Witherspoon, who officially signed his National Letter of Intent to continue his academic and athletic career at the University at Buffalo. Yesterday’s National Signing Day marked a milestone years in the making for Anwar, whose drive, perseverance, and dedication have shaped his growth as both a student-athlete and a young man of strong character. His commitment to excellence—rooted in discipline, faith, and a tireless work ethic—has set him apart as a leader in the STA community.

Anwar’s path to Division I athletics has been fueled not only by his own determination but also by the unwavering support of his family, coaches, and mentors who have guided and encouraged him along the way. Whether serving others through community outreach or inspiring younger athletes with his example, Anwar has consistently demonstrated humility and gratitude, embracing the responsibility that comes with being both a teammate and a role model. His achievements reflect the values we strive to instill at St. Thomas Aquinas: integrity, purpose, and a commitment to becoming one's best self.

As Anwar takes the next step at the University at Buffalo, we celebrate not just the athlete he has become but the person he continues to grow into. His Trojan family stands proudly behind him, knowing his impact will reach far beyond the field. Congratulations, Anwar—once a Trojan, always a Trojan.
