Hills West alumnus Stephen Bowen signed with the New York Jets on March 24. Bowen, who was in the Hills West Class of 2002, played football in college at Hofstra before entering the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2006. He plays on the defensive line and was formerly on the Cowboys and then the defensive captain of the Redskins. Stephen is the only former Colt currently playing in the NFL and it is an incredible turn of events to have him coming back home to play for his hometown team. Look for him on Sundays this year with the new-look Jets.
