Fall signing period: See which Kentucky athletes have made it official
The early period for the signing of national letters of intent for all non-football sports began Wednesday and ends Nov. 15, and many Kentuckians are partaking.
Below is a list of athletes from schools outside the Louisville area who’ve signed or will soon sign national letters of intent. The list is organized by sport and has been curated from signings reported to the Herald-Leader as well as those reported by other media outlets and schools on social media.
Please note that some schools, such as NAIA institutions, cannot accept a national letter of intent but some athletes listed joined in the ritual on a purely ceremonial basis.
If you know of an athlete who will next season play a sport in college and isn’t listed below, please contact Josh Moore via Twitter (@HLpreps) or email (jmoore@herald-leader.com).
