Big news and a big honor for one area high school student. Edgerton High senior, Devin Thiel, was accepted into the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.

To get in, Thiel got a nomination from Congressman, Bob Latta after going through an application and interview process. He will be leaving on June 26th to attend basic cadet training. Once he has graduated, he wishes to fulfill his dream of becoming a pilot.
