Two Cave Spring Stars Sign

Two Cave Spring seniors signed letters of intent to play at the college level in a ceremony last Wednesday in the school auditorium.

Courtney Gaddy will play softball for Winthrop University in Rock Hill, South Carolina. The talented Cave Spring infielder has been a 4-year player in the Knight’s softball program and currently starts at second base.

“Winthrop became interested in me after I appeared in a showcase tournament there last year,” Gaddy noted Wednesday. She had also considered Greensboro College and Guilford.

Although Winthrop was actually the last school she visited, there may have been some family ties in the decision. Both of her parents, Russell and Terri Gaddy, are Winthrop graduates.

Also Wednesday, Luke Feldenzer signed to play baseball for ODAC member Hampden-Sydney in Farmville, Va.

Feldenzer has been described as the best shortstop in Cave Spring baseball history. Not only talented in the field, he provides a strong pressence in the Cave Spring batting lineup. He also was  member of the back-to-back state championship Knight’s basketball team.

“I was really impressed by the coaching staff at Hampden-Sydney,” Feldenzer said after the signing. “The size of the school was also a major consideration.”

Luke is the son of John and Karen Feldenzer.
