<p>The Prep Dig 250 Expo is near. There will be many athletes in attendance looking to showcase their skills and abilities. It is our desire at Prep Dig to continue to learn about some of the athletes we may not be as familiar with. As we scrolled the list of attendees, we picked out some names we aren't as familiar with but excited to learn more about heading into the weekend. </p>
