Four years of work for one moment of relief — at least for a year.

With the flick of a wrist, Southern California's top high school football players inked their commitments to a college of their choice on Signing Day.

Here is a roundup of Signing Day participants from the area's most notable programs, along with any other newsworthy commits to big-time college programs.

MATER DEI

The Monarchs had 10 players participate in Signing Day, but it didn't come without a little bit of drama. 5-star wide receiver Chris Henry Jr., who is committed to Ohio State, did not sign and is still weighing offers from USC and Oregon.

His teammate Kayden Dixon-Wyatt, also an Ohio State commit, did flip his commitment Wednesday — signing with USC. Is that an indicator, Henry Jr. will be a Trojan too?

These players did sign: TE Mark Bowman (USC), WR Kayden Dixon-Wyatt (USC), OL Kodi Greene (Washington), QB Ryan Hopkins (Wisconsin), DB CJ Lavender Jr. (UCLA), RB Justin Lewis (Massachusetts), WR Koen Parnell (UC Davis), DL/LB Shaun Scott (USC), and DL Tomuhini Topui (USC).

ST. JOHN BOSCO

The Braves had seven players sign Wednesday, including wideout Carson Clark (San Jose State), kicker CJ Wallace (Washington), wideout Daniel Odom (Oklahoma), defensive lineman Dutch Horisk (Oregon), defensive back Josh Holland (USC), wide receiver Madden Williams (Texas A&M),and linebacker Matthew Muasau (UCLA).

CORONA CENTENNIAL

Corona Centennial has seen 22 players participate on Signing Day the last two years. This year's ceremony included LB Jonathan McKinley (Cal), DL Kingston Schirmer (Cal), TE Keawe Browne (Boise State), DB Therman Williams (Wyoming), DL Benjamin Tameifuna (Eastern Washington), OL Jakob McKindley (Northern Arizona), OL Caleb Rye (Air Force), LB Fifita Tauteol-Moore (Princeton), and WR Tyler George (Penn).

SIERRA CANYON

The Trailblazers had an impressive list of Signing Day participants: WR Tron Baker (USC), RB DeMarkus Barnes (Eastern Washington), DB Trey Brown (Kansas), DL Mikhal Johnson (Harvard), DB Brandon Lockhart (USC), LB Jonah Nadley (Washington University), DB Madden Riordan (USC), WR Dino Scordia (Washington University), DE Richie Wesley (Texas), LB Ronen Zamorano (Air Force), and DB Havon Finney (LSU).

Three Friars were all smiles Wednesday: Luke Sorensen (Nebraska), Weston Ashbrook (San Diego) and Gavin Wilkins (Montana State).
