Journeyman does not currently have the staff, facility or confirmed full interest to allow it to take part in the fall and the winter. The board will continue to review our options with NETS to ensure we can provide what our student athletes need.
All other divisions, D2, D1, JHAWKS and Seniors will conduct session as they have for many years without interruption.
AP24
You will see the AP24 logo on many new articles of clothing in 2023. The loss of Journeyman’s #1 son was a devastating blow to the Price family and to the hundreds of student athletes that received coaching, mentoring and friendship from Alexander John Price. Journeyman’s web site and social media platforms display many images and comments about his impact on the program. Journeyman offers that NO PROFIT WILL EVER BE MADE FROM ANY ARTICLE OF CLOTHING WITH AN AP24 LOGO ON IT! Journeyman feels their profit was delivered over and over again by Alex’s participation, coaching, volunteer work and friendships over an extensive career with the program. Jamie Marsh will work with JP Sanborn and the Price family to direct funds in access of cost and ensure they benefit worthy causes closely connected to Alex Price.
