Three Section XI alumni have reached the latest step in their dreams to play in the NFL.

Dylan Laube from Westhampton Beach and Matt Goncalves from Eastport South Manor were both drafted, and JJ Laap signed a free-agent contract.

Goncalves, out of Pittsburgh, was drafted by the Colts in the third round, 79th overall. Laube, out of New Hampshire, was drafted by the Raiders in the sixth round, 208th overall. Laap, out of Cortland, signed with the Rams.

Good luck to all three on their journey!
