Sean Diebel, Glen Este High School senior, will be attending Spartanburg (S.C.) Methodist College. His major course of study will be sports management. He recently signed a letter-of-intent to play basketball there.

An Eagle Scout, he was a letterman in basketball who earned the GEHS Comeback Award for enduring, fighting, and overcoming a collapsed lung.

He chose the South Carolina school because “my older brother Tom went there and its a small school in a perfect little town.”

“I think it’s great he’s going to school there. It’s a good fit for Sean academically and for basketball,” said Terri Diebel, Sean’s mom. “We’re comfortable with the good community where the college is located.”
