Daniel Freitag was standout high school basketball and football player for Bloomington-Jefferson last school year but this summer is bringing some changes. Freitag is moving to California to attend Southern California Academy.

Freitag committed to the University of Wisconsin on a basketball scholarship in the spring and that will be the sole sport he focuses on. Southern California Academy doesn’t even have a football team.

“Leaving Jefferson was one thing but leaving the sport is also very challenging.”
