Every year the athletic department coordinates a day for senior athletes to officially “sign” to their selected college. One of the days is for the early and already verbally committed athletes in the fall, and the other is for the later committed athletes in the spring.
Normally located in the lecture hall, this year’s fall signing was moved to the auditorium. This move was because nine athletes were signing, a larger number than ever before, and there was not enough room in the lecture hall. Each athlete’s coach talked about them and then the signees ceremoniously signed their names, publicly committing to their college.
The following are the athletes who signed, the sport they play, and where they signed to:
Volleyball:
Shannon Connell: Stephen F. Austin State University
Bailey Martin: Northwestern University
Ebony Nwanebu: University of South California
